Get Sm@RT with small ruminant farming A FUNDING pot of €2million has been awarded to a team of researchers to improve the uptake of Precision Livestock Farming tools in small ruminant farming systems in Europe and beyond. These digital technologies have been embraced by sectors such as the dairy industry, improving farm efficiency and sustainability – however, the uptake of such tools has been slower in the small ruminant industry. A new EU-funded project named Sm@RT (Small Ruminant Technologies) will bring together a network of researchers from across Europe who will improve awareness amongst those working in the farming industry of newly available PLF tools, demonstrating their potential and possible return of investment. The network will engage with a wide range of sheep and goat farming systems across the continent.
