Computerized screening of milk detects instantly any disease developing in udder or any watery content in milk., even before showing any external symptoms in the animal. Routine checking and cleaning of the animal with record milk output (quality and quantity) increase the worth of milking machines.

Some of machine and detectors are also available to check the pregnancy status of cattle. Electric ear and neck tags are also used for heat detection and for pregnancy status of the cattle. Also, indicate and schedule the feed intake. Potentially detect heats and illness early, or without doing a visual assessment, help reduce workloads for key people and, also help staff who are less experienced in animal husbandry.
