General information

Short Summary
A Greek smart tech company has developed an AI-based solution to enhance goat farming productivity and animal welfare. The system uses AI for health monitoring, optimized feeding, and breeding efficiency, offering real-time insights for data-driven decisions. The company seeks partners for research cooperation, adoption under a commercial agreement with technical assistance, or investment to scale up.
Full Description
A Greek innovator has developed a cutting-edge Precision Livestock Farming (PLF) solution to optimize herd productivity, enhance animal welfare, and streamline farm management through real-time insights and data-driven decision-making. Using sensors, artificial intelligence (AI), and cloud computing, the technology revolutionizes small ruminant farming efficiency and sustainability.

Traditional sheep and goat herd management faces multiple challenges:
• Difficulty in early disease detection
• Complex productivity assessment
• High labor demands
• Environmental adaptation needs
• Limited access to real-time data

The technology's core consists of sensors and AI-driven analytics working together to monitor livestock health, productivity, and farm conditions through:

Data collection via advanced sensors monitoring:
• Animal behavior and movement
• Health indicators (temperature, heart rate, rumination)
• Environmental conditions
• Nutritional patterns

Data transmission:
• Automatic cloud transmission via wireless connectivity
• Elimination of manual entry and human error

Data processing and analysis:
• AI-driven algorithms process raw data
• Detection of patterns, anomalies, and trends
• Health, productivity, and environmental monitoring

Smart alerts and recommendations through user-friendly application:
• Early disease warnings
• Nutritional adjustment guidance
• Reproductive cycle insights
• Environmental optimization suggestions

The company seeks the following partnerships:

Commercial agreement with technical assistance:
• Farmers and cooperatives to:
- Adopt the technology
- Act as demonstrators
- Provide performance feedback
• SMEs to integrate the technology with existing agro-tech solutions

Investment Agreement:
• Large companies/industry leaders for market expansion

The technology offers comprehensive solutions for modern livestock management challenges, combining cutting-edge technology with practical applications to revolutionize the agricultural sector. Through strategic partnerships, the company aims to expand its reach and enhance its capabilities, contributing to the advancement of sustainable and efficient farming practices.
Advantages and Innovations
1. Access to cutting-edge PLF technology
Partners will gain firsthand access to one of the most advanced livestock monitoring systems, improving their operational efficiency and decision-making.

2. Production increase
Systematically recording and analyzing milk yield data enables better nutrition management and a more targeted genetic improvement plan, leading to increased milk production.

3. Animal Welfare & sustainability
The effective use of early disease diagnosis’ data through technology can help minimize production losses, protect animal health, significantly reduce morbidity within a flock, thus aligning with global sustainability goals.

4. Management Efficiency
The use of electronic monitoring technologies reduces flock management time, increasing work efficiency by up to 15%. Additionally, through data analysis and better adaptation of the nutritional plan, feed costs can be reduced by up to 10%.

5. Environmental Footprint
Optimizing resource use through Precision Livestock Farming technologies helps reduce methane emissions by 8-12% and allows for a reduction in resource waste by up to 15%.
