Periodic Reporting for period 1 - Pathogens detection (Antibiotics reduction with early mastitis pathogens detection for @ point of animal care usages)
Período documentado: 2015-03-01 hasta 2015-08-31
- less mastitis incidences occur
- reduce of revenue losses (less new infection)
- there will be less use of unnecessary antibiotic
- more milk will be produced
- a better dairy cattle lifetime will be developed, resulting in a better return on investment for the farmer per cow. Detecting mastitis at an early stage is a new competitive eco-innovative process that contributes to a more resource efficient, sustainable circular economy. Continuing population and consumption growth will mean that the global demand for food will increase for at least another 40 years. Growing competition for land, water, and energy, will affect our ability to produce food, as will the urgent requirement to reduce the impact of the food system on the environment. Extending the lifespan of dairy cattle by combating mastitis with better insights @ point of animal care using innovative diagnostics tools will lead to a proper use of resources hence a more the efficiency use of raw materials.
