Description
Summary:Many agricultural organizations are searching for innovative solutions in the engineering equipment of livestock premises in order to maintain an optimal microclimate in them. With stable keeping, the productivity of animals directly depends on the nutritional value of feed, a certain state of the air, temperature and humidity. The article provides a brief analysis of the indicators of economic activity of Temp LLC in the Kaliningrad region, whose main activity is dairy farming. A reduction in the productivity of dairy livestock and high growth rates of the cost of milk were revealed. Measures are proposed to maintain the microclimate in the cowshed using HB LED lamps and the PM-Kit curtain system controlled by automated Farm Management Support systems. The system allows to control many basic processes for animal care, but the article only covers lighting and air exchange. The measures will increase the average annual productivity of animals by 7.3% and reduce the cost of 1 cent. of milk by 4.6%.
