In the breeding process, digitalization can help farms reduce the farm feed, disease prevention and control, labor and other aspects of production costs, effectively improve farm production efficiency, to protect the level of quality and safety of farms, to help farms to achieve precision management decisions, for the development of the industry to inject new momentum. In the future, in the context of increasing farming costs, tightening environmental constraints and intensifying external challenges, the digitalization of the dairy industry will become an inevitable trend of industrial development.

Key words: dairy digitization, smart farming, precision management, digital decision
