Development of a new automatic water intake measurement and recording system to monitor individual water drinking behaviors of cattle

Öz:
Water is the most vital nutrient directly affecting the production performance and comfort of cattle. Sufficient amount of clean water must be provided in order to obtain the optimum yields in milk and meat production. Measuring individual water intakes of cattle on a farm is not commonly practiced because it requires huge amount of human work. Determining daily water drinking behaviors of cattle can give information about their welfare, health and inadequate farm practices. The aim of this study was to develop a new automatic water intake measurement and recording system giving an opportunity to monitor individual water drinking behaviors of cattle. The developed system consists of three main units: mechanical unit, electronic unit and data storage/processing unit. The mechanical unit holds different components together and provides durability with its installation to the ground. The electronic unit collects the RFID tag number and the amount of water intakes for cattle during a day and sends wirelessly them to the data storage/processing unit during each drinking event. Data storage and processing unit saves the data to its database and makes necessary calculations. A field test with dairy cows was done to determine the performance of the developed system. The cows had 80.55 to 164.41 liters of daily free water intakes, 581 to 2870 seconds of daily water intake durations and 13 to 40 of daily drinking events.

Sığırların bireysel su içme davranışlarının izlenmesi için yeni bir otomatik su alımı ölçüm ve kayıt sisteminin geliştirilmesi

Öz:
Su, sığırların üretim performansını ve konforunu doğrudan etkileyen, yaşamsal öneme sahip bir besindir. Süt ve et üretiminde optimum verimi elde etmek için yeterli miktarda temiz suyun temin edilmesi gerekmektedir. Çok yüksek miktarlarda insan emeği gerektirdiği için çiftliklerde sığırların bireysel su alımının ölçümü yapılmamaktadır. Sığırların günlük su içme davranışlarının belirlenmesi, sığırların refahı, sağlığı ve uygun olmayan çiftlik uygulamaları hakkında bilgi verebilir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, sığırların bireysel su içme davranışlarını izleme imkanı verecek yeni bir otomatik su alımı ölçüm ve kayıt sisteminin geliştirilmesi olmuştur. Geliştirilen sistem; mekanik ünite, elektronik ünite ve veri toplama/işleme ünitesi olmak üzere üç ana üniteden oluşmaktadır. Mekanik ünite farklı parçaları birlikte tutmakta ve yere montajıyla dayanım sağlamaktadır. Elektronik ünite, her bir su içme olayı için su içen hayvanın RFID küpe numarasını ve içtiği su miktarını toplamakta ve kablosuz olarak veri depolama/işleme ünitesine göndermektedir. Veri depolama/işleme sistemi gelen verileri veri tabanında saklamakta ve gerekli hesaplamaları yapmaktadır. Geliştirilen sistemin performansını belirlemek için süt ineklerinin kullanıldığı saha denemesi yapılmıştır. Her bir ineğin 80.55 ile 164.41 litre aralığında günlük su alımı, 581 ile 2870 saniye aralığında günlük su içme süresi ve günlük su içme sayısı 13 ile 40 aralığında olmuştur.
