Abstract

The present invention provides a holding area (110) and method (500) executed in a holding area (110) arranged at a milking parlour (120) of a farm. A location system (200) is arranged at the holdingarea (110), and is configured to monitor animal movements in at least two directions. The location system (200) comprises a control unit (210), a tag (220), and transceivers (230a, 230b, 230c), configured to detect signals emitted by the tag (220), and communicate information with the control unit (210). The method (500) comprises determining (501) arrival time of the animal (100) and/ or animal movement;identifying (502) the animal (100); monitoring (503) a waiting time of the animal (100) in the holding area (110) and/ or animal movements of the animal (100); comparing (509) the waiting timeand/ or animal movements with a respective reference threshold; and triggering (510) an action, when the reference threshold is exceeded.

Description

technical field [0001] This document discloses a method and a holding area comprising a system. More specifically, the holding area is arranged at a milking parlor of a farm, wherein the system is arranged at the holding area and is configured to monitor the movement of animals in at least two directions. Background technique [0002] In an agricultural environment where milk is extracted from animals, such as on a dairy farm, the animals may be kept in a holding area before being allowed into the milking parlor where the milk is extracted. [0003] The animals may have a walking order towards the milking parlor, which may be different from the milking order of the animals in the herd; or simply arrive at the holding area in an arbitrary order. Animals may need to spend some brief time in the holding area to get ready to be milked and sorted for entry into the milking parlor. However, it is not desirable for animals to remain in the holding area for too long. [0004] The...
