SheepNet farmers' views on Precision Livestock Farming for sheep production

The availability of new technologies using electronic identification (EID), and Precision Livestock Farming (PLF) to manage livestock and reduce workload, should become more relevant for sheep farmers. However, the existing uses and uptake of these technologies in the EU is not known. SheepNet, an EU funded project involving the 6 main EU sheep producing countries and Turkey, provided the opportunity for farmers to discuss and exchange their views on PLF technologies, through a survey and by establishing durable exchange between scientists and stakeholders across the EU.
