Collaborative project: Systemic optimization of the value chain meat using the example of pig farming through the development and embedding of digital tools - subproject C (SPECK)
Project
Project code: 281A502C19
Contract period: 01.04.2021
- 31.03.2024
Budget: 522,637 Euro
Purpose of research: Applied research
Keywords: value chains, information-communicationtechnology, digital world, husbandry techniques, meat, food quality, resource protection, resource efficiency, data management, pigs, traceability
On the basis of a software solution to be developed, SPECK will (1) guarantee the traceability of animal related data within the value chain (VC), including the use of drugs in pig farming; (2) further develop concepts of Smart Farming and Smart Food Factory and implement them in context for the first time; (3) significantly increase resource and energy efficiency as well as (4) animal welfare and product quality. This will significantly reduce (5) rejects and waste production along the VC and (6) emissions in both animal husbandry and downstream sectors. To this end, the work is carried out in an integrative inter- (animal sciences, breeding, agriculture, process, automation and electrical engineering, energy technology, software development, veterinary medicine, ecotrophology) and transdisciplinary (animal breeding and husbandry, agricultural consulting, technology providers in the fields of software and automation technology, slaughter and processing, veterinary stock management, business management, science) approach, which is why the consortium includes both innovative representatives from the relevant industries and an interdisciplinary research team.
