Ensuring Basic Technological Processes at a Poultry Farm by Developing an Autonomous Robotic System

Abstract

This paper discusses the issues of poultry technology in the Russian Federation, development prospects, and a new technology called "Smart Farm". Today, to increase the productivity of poultry farms, it is necessary to rethink existing technologies for the production of poultry meat, eggs and introduce new technological solutions for basic technological processes, namely: watering, feeding, disinfection of litter, collection of eggs, monitoring of poultry health by biological external signs. Our idea is that we want to eliminate the human factor from production technology by robotizing the main technological processes. These robots should reduce the likelihood of infections in poultry, increase the productivity of poultry farms, reduce the number of workers involved in the production process, and the number of bulky and energy-intensive stationary installations.
