Roll out of IoT technology showcases huge potential benefits to dairy supply chain

Appleby Creamery, an award-winning, small batch cheese producer based in the Lake District, is aiming to support its traditional manufacturing processes and make its products even more sustainable through the use of Internet of Things (IoT) technology.

In collaboration with CENSIS – the innovation delivery organisation for digitalisation and enabling technologies – the system has been designed and deployed to monitor energy use and temperatures across the creamery’s Eden Valley site.

Invitation to Participate in Research Study

Invitation to Participate in Research Study

The University of the West of Scotland (UWS) is leading a research study funded by the Hannah Dairy Research Foundation.

The study explores the social impact that wearable technologies for cows (e.g. pedometers, biosensors, etc.) have on the daily work and wellbeing of dairy farmers.

If you are a dairy farmer or work in a Dairy Farm that uses, has used, or is thinking to use wearable technology, we would love to hear from you and learn from your experiences.
