Putting sensors on the bodies of animals to automate animal activity recognition and gain insight into their behaviors can help improve their living conditions. Although previous hard-coded algorithms failed to classify complex time series obtained f

We compared broiler chicken welfare in free-range (FR) and intensive indoor (IN) systems using the Welfare Quality® Protocol. Ten FR and 11 IN farms in Brazil were assessed. Results are shown as either scores ranging from 0 to 100, where higher scor

Lameness is a common problem in breeding sows, which often goes undetected for long periods with severe consequences for animal welfare and farm productivity. Automatic lameness detection could help pig farmers to recognise and treat lameness sooner.

Simple Summary Light is an important environmental factor in many aspects for broiler chickens, such as behaviour and physiology, and welfare may be compromised when they are reared under low illuminance. We aimed to investigate what broiler chickens
