Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue of Animals is based on the first IEEE International Workshop Onmeasurements and Applications in Veterinary and Animal Sciences 2023, organized by University of Napoli Federico II. Keynote speakers at the conference were Dr. Bernadette O’Brien, who focused on precision farming applied to a pasture grazing milk production system; Dr. Tomar Norton clarified how Precision Livestock Farming can enhance the sustainability of our livestock production systems; and Dr. João L. Saraiva gave a presentation entitled “Non-invasive indicators of fish welfare”. The workshop included 12 sessions, indicating the wide range of possible applications of smart technologies, and they were named as follows: Measurements in veterinary surgery and gynecology; Innovation and sustainability of PLF; New Advances in Animal Housing, Equipment and Manure Management Strategies for Minimizing Impacts; Rapid and low-cost technologies for large-scale phenotyping in livestock; Metrology in Food Control System; Measurement of animal welfare in livestock; Sustainable productivity and mitigation of environmental impact in livestock systems; From feed to food: assessment of quality, impact and welfare in animal production; IoT-Based innovative technologies for precision livestock farming; Enhancing Precision Animal Science with Big data and Genomics; Precision mini-livestock farming; and a General Session, which included a variety of different topics.
