Precision Livestock Farming

Why does PLF matter?

Solving key challenges faced by modern dairy farms.

What challenges do modern farms face?

Even the best-managed dairy farms struggle with issues that often go unnoticed until they start generating real losses.

Hidden production losses

Most dairy farms do not realize how much milk they actually lose every single day. Undetected inefficiencies in nutrition, suboptimal milking routines, and unadjusted cow comfort add up to a problem that grows in silence.

Studies show that the average farm loses between 10% and 15% of its production potential, often without any awareness that anything is wrong.

Health management challenges

Cow health issues are not just a matter of welfare they represent real financial costs that accumulate with every event. Mastitis, lameness, metabolic issues each means losses that go far beyond the cost of treatment.

A single health event costs the farm between 300 and 600 USD, accounting for production drops, veterinary costs, and reduced performance throughout the cow's lifetime.

Robot efficiency gaps

Investing in Automatic Milking Systems (AMS) is a huge step forward, but technology alone does not guarantee success. Many farms discover that their robots are operating well below their full potential.

Statistics are concerning: most AMS systems utilize only 60–80% of their capacity, meaning that the Return on Investment (ROI) remains significantly limited.

Optimal Dairy addresses these challenges

We combine advanced data analytics with practical experience in dairy farm management to provide solutions that translate into real results.

Data-driven insights

Our know-how reveals hidden patterns in your farm data that impact milk production efficiency. We analyze dependencies that are invisible to the naked eye.

We identify specific areas requiring optimization from nutrition and milking routines to environmental conditions and provide precise recommendations for action.

Potential production growth
+3–6 kg/cow/day

Early problem detection

Advanced analytics detect subtle changes in cow behavior and production before a problem becomes serious and costly. We act proactively, not reactively.

The system monitors dozens of parameters in real time, alerting you to potential health threats far enough in advance to allow for effective intervention.

Reduction in health losses
-15% annually

Optimization algorithms

Technology alone does not increase efficiency the right decisions do. Our algorithms transform raw data from AMS systems into concrete, actionable recommendations.

We help extract the full potential of your technological investments by optimizing robot performance parameters and milking schedules for maximum yield.
