Total control

In a farm today, the demands are many and the modern farmer should make decisions based on accurate data about his livestock. Problems such as accurate animal record keeping, recording yields, feeding, reminders for animal-related tasks, mastitis control, somatic cell growth, and even diagnosing estrus in animals have always existed in units. But now there is a solution for all of them. The SYLCO HELLAS Farm Management System provides the best solution to all the management problems a unit has and makes decision-making easy.

 

Modular design

The system is structured in a way that allows for gradual deployment. This means you can start with the parts of the system that you need today and add any of the rest later.

 

The independent modules that exist today are:

  • Electronic milk measurement.
  • Conductivity measurement (mastitis-somatic cell detection).
  • Activity measurement (estrus detection).
  • Animal data keeping and farm operations management software.
  • Feeding cows.
  • Feeding calves (milk).
  • Automatic animal separation.

The sophisticated meter is simple to build and has few parts that require maintenance. The control panel displays in large, easy-to-read characters the number of the animal being milked, the amount of milk it gave and whether the animal should receive special treatment. There is a built-in 4-line LCD screen from which the milker can get all the data stored for the animal in the computer. In addition to the meter, the panel also controls the detacher and the pulsator and offers a number of settings, such as the milking rate of the animals, detacher time, duration and speed of the massage on the udders before milking.

 

The conductivity sensor is not required for the milk recording function. The system records the milk conductivity of each animal and compares it to the average for the same animal. When it detects a deviation, a sign of somatic cell growth or possible mastitis, it immediately alerts the milker, before clinical symptoms occur.

 

Continuous monitoring of animal behavior to determine fertile days is very difficult, especially in large herds. The special ID is placed on the animal’s neck and records its movement. The ID communicates with the system and transfers the data. When a deviation from the normal average is observed, the user is immediately notified, so that he can check the animal, either for possible estrus, when the activity is greater, or for a possible problem, if its activity is less.
