Nearly a thousand ranch, over one million head of cattle on the entire cloud networking equipment, digital object through in order to achieve control of the entire process milk and dairy whole life cycle. Recently, Ali cloud and Mengniu Group, announced the depth of cooperation, started the "digital milk program." Over the next year, Ali cloud will help Mengniu's dairy cows on pasture all connected things, from rearing to milk production, digital surveillance and pasture for dairy cattle operations, and gradually improve the quality of milk production, improve operational efficiency ranch. Currently, the program has launched a pilot, and implemented in some pastures.
A country pasture management platform
Generally speaking, because the ranch has a diverse scale, diversification equipment, a variety of data characteristics between milk prices and the ranch's very difficult to exchange information on the same platform. As one of China's largest dairy companies, Mengniu's ranch nearly a thousand of over one million cows are its core asset, if these can cow pastures of information technology, digital exchange, will greatly enhance the pasture productivity, raw milk quality, but also result predicted in advance, reduce operating costs.
Wu Rina Mengniu Milk Group Executive Director Business Unit, in order to allow these data to achieve interconnection in the shortest possible time, they chose Ali cloud and cooperation, by building a set of digital intelligence milk pasture management platform for Mengniu ranch cows data quickly realize the connection to the cloud and unified analysis. Staff entrance through a platform that you can see real-time data of each index cow pasture.
Cows digital lifecycle
Mengniu's Shanghai ranch staff, platform operators in the future, from cow breeding, feeding, breeding, in the end of lactation, every step of strict control and monitoring of indicators. This is how much cows eat, whether suffering from diseases, milk production is how much? These indicators are capable of real-time monitoring data.
Ali cloud joint Mengniu milk Division of the ranch conducted field research, in-depth analysis of the digital transformation of the ranch, and proposed solutions. Future, digital intelligence milk pasture management platform, with intelligent neck ring interconnection per cow cattle through intelligent neck ring data monitoring and upload the data to the gateway of things specific area, thus achieving cows daily exercise, milk monitoring real time data information, after performing the data analysis, the obtained each cow estrus, artificial insemination in order to achieve accurate.
In addition to the intelligent data sharing neck ring, Ali cloud will also have other things pasture used to connect devices to achieve data integration, unified platform, unified analysis. As in terms of feeding cows, by TMR system that can accurately analyze the food intake of each cow. While reasonable distribution of feed, but also did predict the health of the cow in advance.
Ali intelligent cloud IoT Division Product Specialist Yunshan, said the hardware was integrated by a series of cloud deployment Ali networking, information collected through the Internet of Things platform to upload to the cloud analysis and processing, and ultimately bring real-time data for staff analyze the results. He stressed that Ali cloud management platform built to help Mengniu will be able to realize the full life cycle of the cow digital coverage.
Build a digital ecosystem ranch
"Mengniu cooperation and there is further space to develop." Yunshan said that although the intelligent transformation projects, pasture facing various difficulties, including funds, but Mengniu and Ali cloud will be determined to complete the "digital milk plan ", the two sides will gradually include cows in heat came to light, including a number of disease surveillance project.
Improve the "digital milk plan", the national dairy industry will also play a role in benchmarking, promote the upgrading of the industry. Future, Ali cloud-depth cooperation with Mengniu will continue to provide all kinds of support for the ranch, and apply for support from the government and industry bodies, to build a digital pasture ecosystem, greatly enhance the overall level and competitiveness of China's dairy industry.
