Use of computer in Animal Husbandry
1.5 Farm’s Mother Software All this feeding precision and control would make no sense without a computer program that allows all the data generated on the pig farm to be interrelated and compared to make it more efficient and detect possible deviations. The basic element of the OPP Group project is its computer program—Farm’s Mother, a platform that integrates, handles and analyzes data. It is not just another management program, but a processing synchronizing and analyzing data tool that is compatible with the habitual management programs used by farmers. After transferring production data to the Farm’s Mother program, it computes all the variables and after analyzing them shows the real situation on a pig farm. It processes the data of the group gestation, the feeding in maternity pens, environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, etc.), health treatment, birth and weaning weights, dorsal fat or water consumption. Gathering all this data from the pig farm provides information ...
