Definitions

  • the invention relates to the managing of the production of feed used on animal farms.
  • the invention concerns an automated method and system for managing the production of feed in a manner enabling optimisation of the growth of animals or the quality of their yields .
  • Meat production is a long chain having as the initial end the production farm itself and as the final end the consumer. It is important that the processes of the production chain such as the growth of animals, delivery to the slaughterhouse and butchery are performed in a continuous chain at the right mo- ment of time. At present, the trend in the farms is towards bigger farm sizes. As the production farms are increased in size, the volume of the production chain is also increased, resulting in more complicated processes. Often as the farms are increased in size, the number of people working on a farm is not increased, so the responsibilities of the farm owner grow bigger. The responsibilities of the farm owner include, in addition to the actual agricultural activities, also business operations, and to run them, the farm owner often uses a computer and an internet access. A typical task included in the business operations of a farm owner is to order feed.
  • Pig farms produce pork meat .
  • a part of the pig farms keeps sows the piglets farrowed by whom can be bred in the farm until they are sold to a slaughterhouse, or the piglets can be sold at the age of a couple of months to a pig fattening house.
  • the big fattening houses breed pigs an average of 100 days from a piglet weighing 25 kg even to a pig weighing 100 kg.
  • Poultry farms can be specialised e.g. as poultry breeding farms, egg laying poultry houses or chicken rearing farms. In Finland, ducks, geese, turkeys, quails and ostriches are also bred.
  • a broiler is a fast-growing chicken which is refined for meat pro- duction and which is bred in about five weeks from a chick weighing 40 grams to a broiler weighing 1.8 kg that is big enough to be butchered.
  • the broilers are bred in heated and air-conditioned buildings where automatic devices take care of hygienic provision of feed and water.
  • the growth objectives can include, for example, a weight curve defined by slaughterhouses/refineries or a quality level based on which the refinery/slaughterhouse determines the moment of time and/or quality of the animals or the delivery of their yields.
  • the targets set by a refin- ery/slaughterhouse can also include quality requirements associated with the yields of the animals, such as eggs and milk.
  • the fatty acid composition of egg yolk can be improved by means of feed given to chickens by adding particular vegetable oils to the feeds. The feed given to cows can, in turn, also change the composition of milk yielded by them.
  • the refinery/slaughterhouse can also request certain kind of uniform quality in the yields of animals such as in the properties of meat.
  • One such prop- erty for example, in the broiler production is leg and breast parts as equal in size as possible.
  • One important objective in the meat production of a produc- tion farm is thus as uniform livestock as possible.
  • the animals to be bred for the meat production can be weighed, for example, once a week, enabling one to monitor their growth process. The weighing tells us at what point of the weight curve we are each time. If the animals are clearly above the growth curve, then the feeding can be regulated, for example, by giving to the animal feed having a different composition.
  • the animals are given feed which is balanced in content and corresponds to the feed requirements of each animal in their different development and production phases, the feed enabling one to achieve optimal growth, utilisation of feed and productivity.
  • pigs can be fed with two kinds of feed, with one intended for the initial breeding and the other intended for the end breeding.
  • the animals In order to keep the growth of the animals within the growth curves, the animals shall not be in a shortage of nutrients, but there must not be an excess of them with respect to the need.
  • people have started to use mixtures of feeds so that the growth period of an animal is divided, for example, into four parts. In the beginning of the growth pe- riod, the animals are given feed that is rich in nutritional value, at the end of the growth period non- nutritious feed, and between these a mixture of these two feeds .
  • the farm owner orders each feed delivery separately, although delivery contracts are made even for a year. Orders are often placed at the last moment, so optimal planning of deliveries is often difficult, sometimes even impossible, although for a farm, an impulse to order is a routine measure .
  • the farm owner checks the amount of feed and decides the size of the next order.
  • the farm owner can also make changes to the quality of feed or to the feed mixture.
  • a feeding that takes into account the different growth periods of animals uses client-specific feeds, which are manufactured by a feed plant according to the requirements and/or formula given by the client. Client-specific feeds are manufactured by add- ing to a finished or semi-finished feed components that the clients wants, which are used to achieve the desired properties differing from processed feed. The feed must enable an optimal growth and output.
  • information is gathered on the animals of a farm and on their feeding.
  • the information can be sent to a remote device, which can be, for example, the computer of a factory, a feed supplier, a veterinarian, a nutritionist or a farmer.
  • the information can be proc- essed on the remote device and based on it one can determine whether there is a need on the farm, for example, for a veterinarian, or whether the feeding shall be changed.
  • the objective of the present invention is to disclose a new type of automated management system of feed production.
  • One specific objective of the invention is to simplify and facilitate the controlling of feed production by optimising the regulation of the growth of animals and/or the regulation of the quality of their yields.
  • the objective of the invention is to facilitate the management of feed production and deliveries and to offer to the farm, based on the yield of the animals being bred, feed that suits the growth period and/or the growth objectives of the animals or the quality objectives of their yields.

Abstract

La présente invention se rapporte à la gestion de la production et des commandes d'aliments pour animaux utilisés dans une exploitation agricole. Dans le système selon l'invention, les exploitations agricoles (30) ont été dotées d'un ou plusieurs silos pourvus de capteurs de mesure et de balances permettant de peser les animaux. En outre, les exploitations agricoles disposent d'une connexion de télécommunication (31), par l'intermédiaire de laquelle elles sont connectées à un réseau public (33). L'exploitation agricole (30) communique, via le réseau public, avec le système d'information (32) de ladite exploitation, qui se présente en général sous la forme d'un ordinateur classique, avec le système d'information (34) du fournisseur d'aliments pour animaux, et avec le système d'information (37) de la raffinerie/abattoir. Des limites d'alerte liées au degré de remplissage du silo sont déterminées, et, lorsque le degré de remplissage est inférieur à la limite d'alerte, les animaux sont pesés et tant le propriétaire de l'exploitation que le fournisseur sont informés de cet état de fait. De cette manière, le fournisseur peut déterminer la composition et la quantité d'aliments à produire, et réserver la capacité de transport nécessaire à la distribution desdits aliments.
