Computerized systems and methods for livestock management
Various examples are directed to livestock management systems and methods. A first user computing device may display a GUI comprising a first animal visual element. The first animal visual element may correspond to the first animal and indicate a first colostrum feeding of the first animal. When a user selects the first animal visual element, the user computing device may display a first colostrum input screen for receiving first colostrum data. The user computing device may also modify the first animal visual element to indicate the time status of the first testing action for the first animal.
1 . A livestock management system, comprising:
one or more user computing devices having a user computing device graphical user interface for accepting user input and displaying animal visual elements, a user computing device processor, and instructions stored on non-transitory machine-readable medium executable to:
i) determine a first target time for a first colostrum feeding of more than one animal based on birth data of each animal;
ii) determine a second target time for a second colostrum feeding of the more than one animal, and
iii) modify the animal visual elements based on the first target time and second targe times of each animal;
a server computing device in communication with the one or more user computing devices, the server computing device comprising: a server computing device memory, a server computing device processor, instructions stored on a non-transitory machine-readable medium executable to: send and receive the birth data, the first colostrum data and second colostrum data,
wherein the one or more user computing devices further comprises instructions stored on non-transitory machine-readable medium executable to display, at the user computing device graphical user interface, animal visual elements corresponding to each animal and the date and time at which a next item is due,
the instructions stored on non-transitory machine-readable medium of the one or more user computing devices are further executable to i.) determine that a user has not selected the animal visual element of a first animal to provide the first colostrum data within a threshold time of the target time for the first colostrum feeding of the first animal, and ii.) modify the first animal visual element based at least in part on the target time for the first colostrum feeding of the first animal and at least in part on the determination that the user has not selected the first animal visual element to provide the first colostrum data within a threshold time of the target time for the first colostrum feeding of the first animal.
2 . The livestock management system of claim 1 , wherein the next item due indicated at the user computing device graphical user interface is the time and date for administering the first colostrum feeding or the time and date for administering a second colostrum feeding.
3 . The livestock management system of claim 1 , the instructions stored on non-transitory machine-readable medium of the one or more user computing devices are further executable to modify a color of the animal visual elements based at least in part on the target time for the first colostrum feeding.
4 . The livestock management system of claim 1 , the one or more user computing devices further comprising instructions stored on non-transitory machine-readable medium of the one or more user computing devices executable to arrange the animal visual elements at the user computing device graphical user interface to indicate that a next action for the first animal is before a next action for a second animal.
5 . The livestock management system of claim 4 , further comprising instructions stored on non-transitory machine-readable medium of the one or more user computing devices executable to position the first animal visual element above the second animal visual element at a screen of the first user computing device.
6 . The livestock management system of claim 1 , wherein the instructions stored on non-transitory machine-readable medium of the one or more user computing devices executable:
i) receive a selection of an import button on a colostrum input screen,
ii) initiate communication with an external device; and
iii) receive at least a portion of the first colostrum data from the external device.
7 . The livestock management system of claim 6 , the external device comprising a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) reader, the instructions stored on non-transitory machine-readable medium of the one or more user computing devices executable to prompt the user to use the RFID reader to read an RFID tag associated with a colostrum container including colostrum for the first colostrum feeding.
8 . The livestock management system of claim 7 , the external device comprising an image sensor of the first user computing device, the-instructions stored on non-transitory machine-readable medium of the one or more user computing devices executable to use the image sensor to capture an image of at least a portion of a colostrum container including colostrum for the first colostrum feeding.
9 . The livestock management system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions stored on non-transitory machine-readable medium of the one or more user computing devices executable to:
i) display, at the graphical user interface, a birth input screen comprising at least one field for receiving birth data describing the first animal; and
ii) send the birth data to the server computing device.
10 . The livestock management system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions stored on non-transitory machine-readable medium of the one or more user computing devices executable to determine a second target time for a second colostrum feeding of each animal either based on birth data of each animal or based on first colostrum feeding data of each animal.
