The project utilizes IoT technologies, wireless sensor networks, smart devices and unmanned aerial vehicles for the monitoring and management of livestock. The data is recorded in a decision support information system, which through advanced algorithms will help identify and inform about potential problems and will proceed to prioritize and propose appropriate solutions. The main objectives of the project are a) Strengthening the competitiveness and sustainability of local producers/enterprises by reducing the overall cost and improving the quality of primary milk production and dairy products through the implementation of new technologies – precision livestock systems for monitoring and managing livestock and an information system for decision-making support, b) Strengthening entrepreneurship in the Region of West Macedonia and increasing employment by adding value to the produced dairy products, through increasing the production and marketing of quality livestock products of particular local importance, c) Transferring the results produced at the level of the milk zone for holistic management, providing new development, export and market opportunities. The proposed project is expected to provide a comparative advantage by implementing solutions of scientific excellence.
