Development of a practical data management system

ET4D is a joint research project covering 9 participants from 6 EU countries and 2 participants from 2 non-EU countries. Its main focus is on Development of a practical data management system with embedded sensors for improved environmental management and transparency of dairy farming. The aim of ET4D is to:

Aim 1: Data Collection from Dairy Barns


Validate and expand the reporting frame of a data management system (DMS) with embedded sensors for on-farm use to collect and process data from dairy barns.

Aim 2: System Applicability Across Farms and Regions


Demonstrate the system’s applicability in real word application by deploying it in commercial farms in different countries with different climatological and socio-economic boundary conditions

Aim 3: Information Sharing for Stakeholders


Identify information requirements of different interest groups and demonstrate the potential added value of the information sharing for the farmer and other interest groups.
