Can Livestock Farming Benefit from Industry 4.0 Technology? Evidence from Recent Study

Abstract: The term “Agriculture 4.0” emerged from the term “Industry 4.0” like amany other “4.0” terms. However, are Industry 4.0 technologies and concepts really applicable to agriculture? Are the benefits that Industry 4.0 brings to industrial use cases transferable to livestock farming? This paper tries to answer this question for the three dominant sectors of livestock farming in Central Europe and Germany: Poultry, pig fattening, and dairy farming. These sectors are analyzed along with the eight most relevant Indus… Show more

“…On the one hand, NIC facilitates the expansion of livestock production. First, the establishment of network infrastructure exerts a transformative influence on conventional livestock production methods, fostering their seamless digitization and intelligent evolution, leading to the establishment of a modernized livestock production system [43]. The transformation of digitization and modernization has made livestock industry production more efficient, resulting in an expansion in livestock industry scale.…”

“…Ein grundlegender Punkt ist dabei die Kommunikation aller beteiligten technologischen Systeme, um aktuelle Zustandsdaten und notwendige Regelgrößen untereinander austauschen zu können. Hierbei zeigt sich ein Problem, das auch häufig bei Integration von Industrie 4.0-Applikationen auftritt [12]. Die einzelnen Regelungssysteme sind für sich geschlossen und verwenden häufig auch proprietäre Systeme.…”
