OVISION: Ferramenta de gerenciamento de rebanho de ovinos e caprinos

Abstract

This work addresses the relevance of efficient management of sheep and goat herds in the agricultural sector, highlighting the challenges faced by producers, such as monitoring the health, productivity and well-being of animals. Most producers still adopt empirical practices, which limits the productive potential of creations. Proper management, which includes care for animal nutrition, reproduction and health, is essential to optimize production. However, difficulties such as controlling the weight of animals and managing worms hinder the efficiency of the processes. The introduction of technologies, although promising, results in high costs, especially for small and medium-sized producers. The increasing use of technological solutions in the agricultural sector, with a significant impact on productivity, led to the development of Ovision, a herd management system focused on animal registration and management control, with the aim of improving reproductive management and increasing production efficiency. Ovision is a web platform that aims to facilitate herd management and improve decision-making for producers.
