Abstract:
Survey data told that 46% of the total population of Bangladesh is raising cattle and nearby 20%
of present population does it for a living.[1] In foreign countries, the Internet of Things (IoT) is
going to bring revolutionary transformation in dairy farming sector . But there is lack of digital
livestock management farms in Bangladesh. As our country has associate acute shortage of milk
production. So there could be no other alternatives to utilization of IoT based smart technology in
dairy farming. By adopting improved technologies in dairy farming management system, it will
be easier for secondary and higher educated farmers or farm manager to manage and control of
hole farm. For the assistance of dairy rancher or supervisor and for the expanding of milk
production, appropriate taking care of fed and health care management, we proposed and design a
smart dairy farm management system. In the smart dairy farm management, there will be a chip
for every cow and that will be attached to the neck or ears. Those IoT devices will be connected
with internet and those chips (IoT device) can collect all the physical and surrounding information
of those cows. As example, total number of cows and their per week cow feeding ratio, feed cost,
total milk collection, quantity of sold milk etc. It gives accurate information about every cow. We
have already made a website for better management. Through the IoT devices, all data will be store
in our website and through the website the farm supervisor can view each and every cow’s details
information. The website helps to compare, so that the farm supervisor can easily understand, what
kind of nutrients a cow needs, which kind of health care it needs and even the time when the cow
is ready to milk. A dairy farmer or supervisor can easily know all from the information that will
come to his Pc or mobile phone through our website and internet which is connected to the base
station.
