Oestrus detection and optimal insemination time of sows using infrared sensors

Oestrus detection and optimal insemination time of 38 sows were studied using infrared sensors. results showed that the positive detection rate of this system was higher than that of man-watching method, its rate was 84.2%. At the same time, it could decrease the labor input and the cost of producti...

Description
Summary:Oestrus detection and optimal insemination time of 38 sows were studied using infrared sensors. results showed that the positive detection rate of this system was higher than that of man-watching method, its rate was 84.2%. At the same time, it could decrease the labor input and the cost of production. So, it has great value of extending application.
