This farm has about 600 head of milking cattle and before the introduction of Dairy Production Analytics had no process automation and also faced the problems of manageability, so it was decided to implement the advanced technologies developed for the dairy industry in 2021. Details about the technological process of implementing automation systems, various sensors and DPA on the farm told the IT Director of AFK Corporation (Management Company "Borodulinskoye" LLC) Smirnov Alexander Yurievich.

Sustainable farm through data analytics". During his speech, he spoke in detail about the DPA service, its implementation in "Borodulinskoye" LLC and the improvements that the farm has managed to achieve in less than two years.

Dairy Production Analytics is a management analytics system that, in conjunction with management consulting, allows to achieve impressive results, on average increasing milk yields by 30%. On a monthly basis, DPA customers are provided with analytical notes reflecting the results of the work done, recommendations on how to improve the key business processes on the farm for the next month.

The DPA service uses sensors that transmit data through the LoRaWAN network of ER-Telecom Holding. Evgeny Norov, the head of innovative projects of ER-Telecom Holding JSC, told about the Internet of Things technology and the company's solutions for agriculture.

The event was concluded with the excursion to the farm of "Borodulinskoye" LLC where the owners of the dairy farms could communicate with the specialists and get feedback on the use of DPA. Since this format of interaction between representatives of agricultural business and technology companies has shown its effectiveness, a similar event is planned for this year, and to transfer the experience of "Borodulinskoye" LLC to other farms.
