What is it about?

In the current context, monitoring cattle health is critical for producing abundant milk to satisfy population growth demand and also for attaining sustainability. Traditional methods associated with cattle health must be strengthened in order to overcome the concern of detecting diseases based on the health condition. This problem has moved attention toward digital technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), cloud computing, edge/fog computing, big data, blockchain, drones, robotics, and augmented reality (AR)/virtual reality (VR), as these technologies have proved for real-time monitoring, intelligent analytics, secure data distribution, and real-time visual experience. The purpose of this study is to examine and discuss many cattle health disorders, as well as to address the fundamental notion of digital technologies, as well as the significance of these technologies for cattle health. Furthermore, the article addressed the different devices that integrated IoT and AI for cattle health monitoring, in which the previous architecture of cattle health monitoring is presented. Based on the review, the article discusses the challenges and suggests recommendations that can be implemented for the future work.

Why is it important?

This study is to examine and discuss many cattle health disorders, as well as to address the fundamental notion of digital technologies, as well as the significance of these technologies for cattle health.

Perspectives

Cattle health monitoring is critical for ensuring the health of cattle for milk production. Digital technologies also gained wide attention in every area, where it realizes real-time monitoring and real-time prediction. Inadequate cattle health monitoring results in lower quality milk production. Traditional methods connected to cattle health must be improved in order to overcome the barrier of time required for illness detection based on the health condition. This article is focused on studying digital technology’s significant role in cattle health.
