Partnering with Industry to Move from Reactive to Proactive

Jackie Boerman, assistant professor of animal sciences at Purdue, and Paul Ousterhout of iYOTAH presented as part of the Data Driven Agriculture webinar series.

Purdue and iYOTAH have been working with a commercial dairy farm to predict and influence how much cows eat based on data automatically collected on farms. Feed is the number one cost on dairy farms, managing this input influences farm profitability and sustainability.
