IOT Farming
Inversiones Espidel & Cia ranked as one of the fastest-growing companies in 2023. Over the past 2 years, we have worked in the agricultural and farming sectors because it has come under tremendous pressure due to the very high population growth. The need for food grew at a quadratic rate, and th Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations estimated that food production would have to grow by 70% worldwide to meet the global food demand.
Milk and Health
The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends including three 8-ounce servings of milk daily (or equal portions of other dairy foods like cheese or yogurt), which is justified to increase calcium intake and reduce the risk of osteoporosis and fractures. Marketing efforts such as the iconic “Got Milk?” campaign with celebrities donning milk mustaches spread this message as well. However, research has not shown a consistent benefit on bone health with high intakes of milk, and furthermore has suggested potential harm with certain conditions like prostate cancer. [1]
Internet of Cows: Ingestible IoT sensor monitors the health of livestock
An ingestible IoT sensor is assisting farmers with monitoring the health of their livestock and helping to boost profitability.
The sensor, created by Austrian technology company smaXtec, provides data on inner body temperature, rumination, PH levels, and movement activity. This data helps to ensure the welfare of the livestock by sending early warnings of potential ill-health
Early intervention can help to limit the prescription of antibiotics which, aside from being directly costly, also requires the cow to be removed from the production process and certified as safe by a vet before it can be introduced back to the herd.
The rumination and activity data is used to automatically calculate an insemination window to help farmers improve success. The sensor is also able to detect imminent calving 6-36 hours prior, helping to ensure the safe delivery of a healthy animal.
Milk
Milk is the liquid produced by the mammary glands of mammals, including humans. Breast milk is the preferred food for infants, as it is well-tolerated while their digestive tracts develop and mature. Dairy milk may be introduced at later ages if tolerated well. Although dairy milk may come from any mammal, cows, goats, buffalo, and sheep are common producers. This section will focus on dairy milk from cows, and briefly discuss non-dairy plant milk alternatives.
Whole cow’s milk contains about 87% water. The remaining 13% contains protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. Processing techniques remove fat to produce lower fat varieties: “reduced fat” contains 2% milkfat, “lowfat” contains 1% milkfat, and “nonfat” or “skim” has virtually no milkfat. Cows are often pregnant while they are milked, so dairy milk contains hormones like insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), estrogens, and progestins. Some cows are given additional hormones to increase milk production.
