Sustainability of dairy farms for the future: competitiveness, environment and society towards the emerging needs of community
The main objective of the project is to develop the SMART component of "Stalla 4.0" an innovative tool to increase the economic, environmental and social sustainability of dairy farms of the Veneto Region, taking into account that the consumer requires systems of milk production that guarantee more and more ethical aspects (best animal welfare and reduced environmental impact).
This main objective will allows dairy sector to identify approaches that increase the robustness of the farms through the adoption of most promising environmental and animal welfare practices guaranteeing the improvement of productivity, reliance and the competitiveness of regional dairy production.
Under the management of LP (WP01), the project will carry out an evaluation of the level of compliance of dairy farms in Veneto Region towards regional, national and international environmental and animal welfare (AW) standard (WP02). The impact on AW, environmental and economic performance of farms’ improvements (WP08) will be evaluated within WP03 (ex-ante) and WP04 (ex-post) activities. The data collected in WP03 and WP04, will feed a forecast models quantifying the economic impact of AW and environmental practices (WP05), implementing a smart-decision tool working with mobile access based on big data server (WP06). Farmers will profit of dissemination (WP01) and training activities (WP08).
The problem that will be solved with the project STALLA 4.0 is to increase the economic, environmental and social sustainability of dairy farms of the Veneto Region. Public opinion is less and less inclined to accept the "intensive" breeding model that is unresponsive to animal welfare issues and is identified as the responsible for soil, water and air pollution. In addition, dairy farms are experiencing a heavy economic crisis that seriously impaired their future.
The innovative solution adopted is the creation of a SMART management tool for the dairy farms, accessible by mobile support, which stores, analyses and evaluates just in time the economic, environmental, and animal welfare performances. Information will be shared and processed through a centralised Hub with a two-way flow of information (from and to the Hub) for benchmark evaluations of individual businesses.
The Stalla 4.0 project fully respects the PEI aims for promoting competitiveness, reducing emissions and improving resilience in dairy farming through the efficiency of breeding systems by working in harmony with the community's expectations regarding the protection of natural resources and respect for animal welfare
Public opinion and consumers are less and less inclined to accept the "intensive" breeding model that is perceived as unresponsive to animal welfare issues and is identified as the responsible for soil, water and air pollution. At the same times, dairy farms are experiencing a heavy economic crisis that seriously impaired their future.
STALLA 4.0 want to solve these problems by increasing the economic, environmental and social sustainability of dairy farms of the Veneto Region.
