The comparison of samples in genetic laboratories, including the Veterinary Service of Molecular Genetics of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), has made it possible to follow the route of this animal.
First sensor-based platform to monitor welfare of farm animals developed
The European-funded project ClearFarm, coordinated by the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), has developed and validated the first digital animal welfare monitoring platform that integrates, analyses and displays information collected by various sensors installed on farms. The resulting tool allows consumers and farmers to make informed choices about the purchase of food of animal origin and the care of animals at different stages of their lives.
