Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of livestock breeding technology, and in particular, to an animal care method, an electronic device, a computer-readable storage medium, and a computer program product. Background Art

[0002] During the breeding process, livestock economic animals have their own pregnancy and delivery rules. Some give birth earlier and some later. Before delivery, they all have anorexia, frequent getting up and lying down, and irritability. In order to avoid dystocia caused by obesity or prolonged labor, which may harm the mother and cause stillbirth, different feeding modes should be adopted before and after the delivery of economic animals. At the same time, in order to avoid hypothermia of the offspring, the heating lamp should be turned on in time before delivery. However, there is no intelligent and scientific animal delivery care method in the relevant technology that can reduce the discomfort of the mother during delivery and improve the success rate of reproduction. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the embodiments of the present application is to provide an animal care method, an electronic device, a computer-readable storage medium, and a computer program product to achieve the technical effect of improving the intelligence of animal delivery care.

[0004] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides an animal care method, wherein the animal is equipped with a communication transmitter, and a communication receiving device is installed in the feeding area of ​​the animal and is connected to the communication transmitter within a preset range; the method comprises:

[0005] During the birthing stage of the animal, the animal behavior response data collected by the communication receiving device is obtained; the animal behavior response data is determined based on the communication interaction data between the communication transmitting device and the communication receiving device; the animal behavior response data includes the first number of times the animal enters and exits the feeding area during the feeding period and the second number of times the animal enters and exits the feeding area during the non-feeding period;

[0006] When it is determined based on the first number of times that the animal has an anorexia reaction or when it is determined based on the second number of times that the animal has a nesting reaction, the heat preservation device arranged in the activity area and / or the feeding device arranged in the eating area are controlled to be turned on; wherein the activity area includes the eating area.

[0007] In the above implementation process, by utilizing the communication interaction between the communication transmitting device worn on the animal and the communication receiving device installed in the feeding area, the behavioral reactions of the animal during the delivery stage, including the anorexia reaction and the nesting reaction, are monitored in real time and accurately. Once these reactions are detected, indicating that the animal is about to give birth, at this time, the heat preservation device in the activity area and / or the feeding device in the feeding area are automatically controlled to provide timely delivery care, thereby improving the intelligence and efficiency of the animal delivery care.

[0008] Furthermore, in the birthing stage of the animal, before obtaining the animal behavior response data sent by the communication receiving device, the method further includes:

[0009] Obtaining a pre-stored predicted delivery time of the animal;

[0010] The labor stage is determined based on the predicted delivery time.

[0011] In the above implementation process, by obtaining the predicted delivery time of the animal and determining the delivery time period accordingly, the care method can be fully prepared after the animal actually enters the delivery period, including adjusting the delivery environment and nutritional supplements in advance, providing the animal with better delivery conditions, improving the predictability and pertinence of care, and reducing potential risks and waste of resources caused by untimely or improper care.

[0012] Further, the determining that the animal has an anorexia reaction based on the first number of times and determining that the animal has a nesting reaction based on the second number of times includes:

[0013] When the first number is lower than a preset anorexia threshold, determining that the animal has an anorexia reaction;

[0014] When the second number is higher than a preset nesting threshold, it is determined that the animal has a nesting response.

[0015] In the above implementation process, by setting clear anorexia threshold and nesting threshold, it can be more accurately determined whether the animal has anorexia reaction and nesting reaction.

[0016] Furthermore, the communication interaction data includes communication times; the first times and the second times are determined according to the communication times.

[0017] In the above implementation process, by recording the number of communications between the communication transmitting device and the communication receiving device, the behavior of animals entering and leaving the feeding area can be accurately quantified. This quantitative data (i.e., the first number and the second number) provides an objective and accurate basis for judging whether the animal has anorexia and nesting reactions. Compared with traditional observation methods, this method is more scientific and objective, can reduce errors caused by human factors, and improve the accuracy and reliability of behavioral response recognition.

[0018] Further, the controlling of the heat preservation device disposed in the activity area and / or the feeding device disposed in the eating area to start includes:

[0019] The heat preservation device is controlled to adjust the temperature of the activity area and / or the feeding device is controlled to feed the feed according to a preset post-partum feeding mode.

[0020] In the above implementation process, by adjusting the temperature of the activity area of ​​the animal to be born, a suitable environment can be provided for the cubs, thereby improving the survival rate of the cubs. In addition, according to the actual situation and needs of the animal to be born, the feeding device is controlled to feed the feed according to the preset post-birth feeding mode to meet the nutritional needs of the animal during the recovery period after birth and promote its physical recovery.

[0021] Furthermore, the postpartum feeding mode is determined based on pre-stored individual information of the animal, wherein the individual information includes back fat information, age stage, and weight information.

[0022] In the above implementation process, by considering individual characteristics of animals such as back fat information, age stage, and weight information, a suitable postpartum feeding mode can be tailored for each animal. This precise feeding management not only helps to meet the specific nutritional needs of animals during the recovery period after delivery, but also avoids health problems caused by over- or under-feeding, such as obesity and malnutrition, thus achieving refined and personalized feeding management.

[0023] Furthermore, feeding the feed according to a preset post-partum feeding mode includes:

[0024] Increase feed amount and / or adjust feed type.

[0025] In the above implementation process, increasing the feeding amount and adjusting the feed type will help the recovery of animals after production.

[0026] A second aspect of an embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, the electronic device comprising:

[0027] processor;

[0028] a memory for storing processor-executable instructions;

[0029] Wherein, when the processor calls the executable instruction, any method described in the first aspect is implemented.

[0030] A third aspect of an embodiment of the present application provides a computer-readable storage medium having computer instructions stored thereon, which, when executed by a processor, implement the steps of any method described in the first aspect.

[0031] A fourth aspect of the embodiments of the present application provides a computer program product, wherein the computer program product includes a computer program, and when the computer program is executed by a processor, any method described in the first aspect is implemented.

[0039] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0040] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters represent similar items in the following drawings, so once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent drawings. At the same time, in the description of this application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish the description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0041] Before economic animals give birth, a feeding mode with controlled feed intake should be adopted according to nutritional needs. However, after giving birth, in order to meet the needs of rapid growth of the offspring, a free feeding mode with increased feed intake and more milk production should be adopted. At the same time, in order to avoid hypothermia of the offspring, the heating lamp should be turned on in time before giving birth.

[0042] In the related technologies, the feeding mode adjustment time node and the heating lamp opening time node are controlled by human patrolling the pen to judge the time node of delivery according to the gestational cycle and clinical manifestations. This is not only prone to errors and labor-intensive, but also heavily dependent on human experience. In addition, if the feeding mode is adjusted too late after delivery, the milk volume will be affected due to insufficient feed intake. Turning on the heating lamp too early will cause energy waste, and turning it on late will cause the offspring to die of hypothermia. At present, an intelligent animal delivery care method is urgently needed.

[0043] In response to any of the above-mentioned problems, the present application provides an animal care method, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a process for animal care provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0044] In this embodiment, the animal is equipped with a communication transmitter, and the animal's feeding area is equipped with a communication receiver that is connected to the communication transmitter within a preset range; the method includes:

[0045] Step S10: During the birthing stage of the animal, the animal behavior response data collected by the communication receiving device is obtained; the animal behavior response data is determined based on the communication interaction data between the communication transmitting device and the communication receiving device; the animal behavior response data includes the first number of times the animal enters and exits the feeding area during the feeding period and the second number of times the animal enters and exits the feeding area during the non-feeding period;

[0046] It should be noted that the execution subject of this embodiment may be a server or a communication receiving device.

[0047] Communication transmitter:

[0048] Specific form: The communication transmitter can be a small and light device so that it can be worn on the animal without affecting its normal activities. For example, the communication transmitter can be worn on the ear of the animal. The communication transmitter can also be an embedded sensor. This embodiment does not limit the specific form of the communication transmitter;

[0049] Technical implementation: As an example, a communication transmitter integrates a sensor, a processor and a wireless communication module.

[0050] Communication receiving device:

[0051] Specific form: The communication receiving device is installed in the animal's feeding area, such as near the feeding trough or drinking water point. These devices may be wall-mounted, column-mounted or embedded to facilitate receiving data from the communication transmitting device. For example, the communication receiving device is integrated on the feeding device.

[0052] Technical implementation: As an example, the receiving device transmits the animal behavior response data to the server via an ultra-high frequency antenna module which is also installed in the feeding area.

[0053] The wireless communication technology used between the communication transmitting device and the communication receiving device can be one or more of the following: Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Zigbee, LoRa, NB-IoT, etc.

[0054] As an example, the communication transmitting device is an ultra-high frequency RFID tag, that is, a micro-energy sensor tag, and the communication receiving device is an ultra-high frequency RFID reader / writer. The ultra-high frequency RFID reader / writer uses an ARM Cortex-M3 processor with an operating frequency of 72MHz, a built-in Flash memory capacity of 512KB, a RAM memory capacity of 64KB, and an operating frequency of 915MHz for the ultra-high frequency antenna module. The communication distance is controlled within 0.5 meters in the near field. Based on ultra-high frequency RFID technology, by using an ultra-high frequency RFID reader / writer and the corresponding micro-energy sensor tag, near-field non-contact identification and information reading of animals can be achieved, thereby realizing accurate positioning and behavior recording of animals. Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a communication transmitter provided in an embodiment of the present application, wherein the communication transmitter shown in the figure is worn on the ear of an animal. Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the positional relationship between a communication receiving device and a feeding device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The figure shows the structure of the feeding device, to which the communication receiving device and the UHF antenna are attached.

[0055] It should be understood that when an animal wearing a communication transmitting device enters a preset range, the communication receiving device will automatically establish a communication connection with the transmitting device.

[0056] It is understandable that the labor stage is also called the pre-partum stage or the pre-partum stage, which refers to the time period when the animal is about to start giving birth. This time period can be 6 days, 3 days, or a shorter time.

[0057] The feeding period can include multiple time nodes in a day. For animals about to give birth, in addition to multiple normal feeding time nodes, one or more induced feeding time nodes can also be set. The number of times the animal enters and exits the feeding area at the induced feeding time node can be used to determine whether the animal is anorexic, or the number of times the animal enters and exits the feeding area at the normal feeding time node can be used to determine whether the animal is anorexic. The non-feeding period refers to one or more time periods other than the feeding period consisting of the normal feeding time node and the induced feeding time node.

[0058] During the animal's delivery stage, the communication receiving device will automatically connect and communicate with the communication transmitting device in real time. Based on the interactive information between the two, it can be determined whether the animal enters or leaves the feeding area. By counting the number of entries and exits, the animal's behavioral responses can be further analyzed.

[0059] Step S20: When it is determined that the animal has an anorexia reaction based on the first number of times or when it is determined that the animal has a nesting reaction based on the second number of times, control the insulation device in the activity area and / or the feeding device in the eating area to turn on; wherein the activity area includes the eating area.

[0060] Specifically, the anorexia reaction is usually manifested as the animal eating less during the feeding period, which may be related to the physiological changes and discomfort before delivery. The nesting reaction is manifested as the animal frequently entering and leaving the feeding area during the non-feeding period, which is usually a natural behavior of the animal to prepare for delivery. By judging these reactions, it can be discovered in time that the animal is about to give birth. Usually, if these reactions occur, the animal will give birth within 24 hours, and corresponding care measures and preparation measures should be taken.

[0061] It is understandable that the heat preservation device can not only provide a warm and suitable birthing environment for the animal, but also ensure that the cub will not die from hypothermia. The feeding device can feed the animal according to the actual situation and needs of the animal and the preset post-birth feeding mode to meet the nutritional needs of the animal during the recovery period after birth.

[0062] The preset postpartum feeding mode can be a feeding plan that is prepared and set in advance based on factors such as the animal's type, physiological state after parturition, nutritional needs, and feeding environment. This plan is designed to ensure that the animal can obtain sufficient and balanced nutrition after parturition to promote its rapid recovery, improve milk quality, enhance immunity, and ensure the healthy growth of its offspring.

[0063] The feeding pattern after delivery may include the following: feed type and formula, feeding time and frequency, feeding amount, special nutritional supplements, etc.

[0064] In this embodiment, the behavioral responses of animals during the delivery phase are monitored in real time, and corresponding nursing measures are taken according to these responses, thereby improving the efficiency and intelligence of nursing.

[0065] Based on any of the above embodiments, before step S10, the following is also included: Figure 4 Steps S01-S02 shown:

[0066] Step S01: obtaining the pre-stored predicted delivery time of the animal;

[0067] It should be noted that the predicted delivery time may be a specific time point or time period of delivery.

[0068] The predicted farrowing time can be input by the user based on historical experience, or it can be predicted by the deep learning model based on historical experience for the specific animal species. For example, based on historical experience and animal reproduction, it can be determined that sows usually take 114 days from pregnancy to farrowing.

[0069] Step S02: Determine the labor stage based on the predicted delivery time.

[0070] It should be understood that once the predicted delivery time is obtained, a reasonable time range for the delivery stage can be set based on the physiological characteristics and reproductive laws of the animal.

[0071] For example, the three days before and after the predicted delivery time, a total of six days, are used as the delivery stage. If the animal to be delivered is a sow, and its predicted delivery time is October 10, then the period from October 7 to October 13 is used as the delivery stage, and during this period, the communication receiving device is controlled in real time to collect animal behavior response data to determine whether it is about to deliver.

[0072] In this embodiment, obtaining the pre-stored predicted delivery time of the animal and determining the labor stage based on the predicted delivery time is an important step in the management of the animal's labor stage, which provides a time reference and basis for subsequent care and management, and can arrange the animal's care plan more accurately.

[0073] Based on any of the above embodiments, determining that the animal has an anorexia reaction based on the first number of times and determining that the animal has a nesting reaction based on the second number of times includes: Figure 5 Steps S21-S22 shown:

[0074] Step S21: when the first number is lower than a preset anorexia threshold, determining that the animal has an anorexia reaction;

[0075] It should be understood that the first number refers to the number of times the animal attempts to eat or actually eats during the feeding period of the feeding device.

[0076] The anorexia threshold is a standard value or range set according to factors such as the animal species, age, health status, and breeding environment, and is used to determine whether the animal has anorexia. This embodiment is described by taking the anorexia threshold as 1 time.

[0077] Specifically, one or more induction feeding time nodes are set, and the feeding device is controlled to perform feeding induction during the induction feeding stage (i.e., a time period consisting of one or more induction feeding time nodes). If the laboring animal does not enter the feeding area to eat during three feeding induction behaviors, it can be determined that anorexia occurs. The determination of anorexia can be performed by a preset labor monitoring algorithm module.

[0078] Step S22: when the second number is higher than a preset nesting threshold, determining that the animal has a nesting response.

[0079] It should be understood that the nesting response refers to the behavior of animals preparing nests before giving birth or for reproduction, such as tidying up the nest, collecting materials, etc. This response may also be accompanied by restlessness, frequent getting up and lying down, or lying down in a flocculated state. No matter which response it is, it can be determined based on the animal behavior response data collected by the communication receiving device. This is because, under any behavior response, behavioral data of animals frequently entering and leaving the feeding area during non-feeding periods will be generated.

[0080] The nesting threshold is a standard value or range set according to factors such as animal species, breeding habits, and breeding environment, and is used to determine whether an animal has a nesting response. This embodiment is described by taking the nesting threshold as 3 times.

[0081] Specifically, if the number of times a pregnant animal enters and exits the feeding area exceeds three times during a non-feeding period (there is no food in the feeding area during this period; in some cases, nesting items, such as straw, are placed in the feeding area for the pregnant animal during this period), it is determined that the animal has a nesting response.

[0082] In this embodiment, by setting clear thresholds and judgment logic, the anorexia and nesting reactions of animals can be identified more quickly and accurately, so that corresponding care measures can be taken in time.

[0083] Based on any of the above embodiments, the communication interaction data includes the number of communications; the first number and the second number are determined based on the number of communications.

[0084] It can be understood that once an animal wearing a communication transmitting device enters a preset range (the preset range includes the feeding area), it means that the animal wants to enter the feeding area. At this time, the communication receiving device will automatically connect and communicate with the communication transmitting device. Therefore, the first number is equal to the number of communications between the communication transmitting device and the communication receiving device during the feeding period, and the second number is equal to the number of communications between the communication transmitting device and the communication receiving device during the non-feeding period.

[0085] In this embodiment, the first number and the second number are determined by the number of communications, so as to better measure and quantify the behavior of the animal in different time periods.

[0086] Based on any of the above embodiments, the controlling of the heat preservation device disposed in the activity area and / or the feeding device disposed in the eating area to start includes:

[0087] The heat preservation device is controlled to adjust the temperature of the activity area and / or the feeding device is controlled to feed the feed according to a preset post-partum feeding mode.

[0088] Specifically, the heat preservation device can be a heat preservation lamp.

[0089] As an example, the temperature of the activity zone can be adjusted by setting the target temperature of the heat preservation device. When the ambient temperature is lower than the target temperature, the heat preservation device automatically starts or strengthens the heating function; when the ambient temperature is higher than the target temperature, the heating is weakened or stopped. For example, to ensure that the newborn cub will not suffer from hypothermia, the target temperature is set to 32°C. Before adjusting the temperature, the heat preservation device first collects the real-time temperature of the activity zone, determines the difference between the real-time temperature and the target temperature, and adjusts the temperature accordingly based on the difference.

[0090] In addition, the thermal insulation device is not limited to adjusting the temperature of the entire activity area. In one case, in order to reduce waste of resources, the thermal insulation device can be set to swing with the position of the animal in labor, and only adjust the temperature of the area where the animal in labor is located. This area needs to be larger than the area occupied by the animal in labor to better cover the cubs. The thermal insulation device can also be set to cover only the area where newborn cubs are located, only to ensure that the cubs do not lose temperature. For example, after the cubs are born, they are placed in the delivery room. In this case, the thermal insulation device can be set in the delivery room area. The thermal insulation device is only used to adjust the temperature of the area where the cubs are located, and there is no need to adjust the temperature of the area where the animal in labor is located.

[0091] Specifically, a feeding device is a device used to feed feed in animal husbandry. It can be a simple automatic feeder or a complex intelligent feeding system. The design and function of the feeding device are usually determined according to the type of animal, the scale of breeding, and the needs of feeding management. The preset post-partum feeding mode refers to a feeding plan that is set in advance based on the nutritional needs, feeding standards, and management experience of the animal after delivery. This mode usually includes key parameters such as feeding time, frequency, feed type, and quantity, aiming to ensure that the animal can obtain adequate nutritional support after delivery and promote physical recovery and milk secretion.

[0092] In the control system of the feeding device (the control system is, for example, a feeding and feeding module deployed in the cloud, which controls the operation of the feeding device), it is necessary to input the relevant information of the preset post-delivery feeding mode, including the time, frequency, type and quantity of feeding, etc. This information can be input by manual setting or automatically reading the data of the feeding management system. The control system of the feeding device will perform logical judgment based on the input information to determine when, how and how much feed to feed. According to the result of the logical judgment, the feeding device performs the corresponding feeding action.

[0093] In addition, due to the individual differences of animals, the feeding device can collect feedback information such as the animal's feeding situation to adjust the subsequent feeding strategy. Through continuous feedback and adjustment, it can ensure that the feeding device can feed according to the optimal feeding mode.

[0094] In this embodiment, by effectively controlling the heat preservation device and the feeding device, the survival rate and health level of the cubs and the mother after the animal gives birth can be significantly improved.

[0095] Based on any of the above embodiments, the postpartum feeding mode is determined based on pre-stored individual information of the animal, wherein the individual information includes back fat information, age stage, and weight information.

[0096] It should be noted that back fat is an important indicator for measuring animal body fat reserves; the age of animals directly affects their physiological state and nutritional needs. For example, young animals may need more protein and energy to support their growth and development, while older animals may need more minerals and vitamins to maintain health; weight information is an important indicator for measuring the physical condition and nutritional status of animals; this information is mainly used to calculate the amount of feeding after delivery.

[0097] The individual information of the animal includes but is not limited to back fat information, age stage, and weight information, and may also include the animal's physiological characteristics, feeding history, health status and other aspects to guide subsequent feeding management decisions. Specifically, the individual information of the animal may also include animal identity information, gestation period, and the time allowed for early or delayed delivery. The user may determine the possible early or delayed delivery time of the animal in labor based on historical feeding experience. For example, the animal in labor is a sow. According to historical experience, the gestation period of a sow is generally 114 days. In some cases, the delivery may be advanced or delayed by 3 days. Based on this, it is only necessary to manually set the time allowed for early or delayed delivery to 3 days. At this time, the animal's behavioral response data can be monitored in the first 3 days of the gestation period.

[0098] In the specific implementation, many economic animals have achieved fully automated centralized breeding. Corresponding file information can be established in advance for each animal in the economic animal file module stored in the cloud or server. Exemplarily, the file information includes identity identification, back fat, age stage, gestation period, allowed early or delayed delivery time, weight, location and other information. This information provides raw data for the labor monitoring algorithm module. The labor monitoring algorithm module is started within the time period allowed for early or delayed delivery, and the animal behavior response data acquired by the feeding module and the behavior detection module are monitored at all times. When the labor monitoring algorithm module determines that the animal has anorexia, nesting, irritability, frequent getting up and lying down, or cooped up based on the animal behavior response data, it is determined that the economic animal is in labor and a labor instruction is issued. When the heat lamp control module and the feeding and feeding module receive the labor instruction, they respectively control the heat lamp to turn on and control the feeding device to feed according to the post-delivery feeding mode.

[0099] In this embodiment, the postpartum feeding mode is determined based on pre-stored individual animal information (including back fat information, age stage and weight information, etc.). This personalized feeding mode helps to improve feeding efficiency and optimize feeding management.

[0100] Based on any of the above embodiments, feeding according to a preset post-partum feeding mode includes:

[0101] Increase feed amount and / or adjust feed type.

[0102] Understandably, after giving birth, animals, especially mammals such as sows, require more energy and nutrients to support recovery, milk production and suckling of newborns. Therefore, the amount of food fed is increased to ensure that the animal can get adequate nutritional support.

[0103] Specifically, increasing the feeding amount can be achieved by controlling the feeding device to increase the amount of feed fed each time or increasing the frequency of feeding. The specific increment and frequency should be determined based on the individual information of the animal.

[0104] In addition, the nutritional needs of animals after giving birth are different from those of normal times, especially more nutrients such as protein, minerals and vitamins are needed to support the secretion of milk and the growth and development of newborn cubs. Therefore, the adjustment of feed types is to ensure that animals can obtain more balanced and comprehensive nutrition.

[0105] Specifically, the feed type can be adjusted by replacing feed with different nutritional ingredients or adding specific nutritional supplements. For example, increasing the proportion of high-protein feed or adding feed additives rich in minerals and vitamins. Adjusting the feed type can also be determined based on the individual information of the animal.

[0106] In actual feeding management, increasing the feed amount and adjusting the feed type are often carried out at the same time.

[0107] In this embodiment, by scientifically and rationally adjusting the feeding amount and feed type, it is possible to ensure that the animals receive adequate nutritional support after delivery, promote their physical recovery and milk secretion, and improve feeding efficiency.
