Description

The present invention is conventionally stored and managed as independent information in individual systems such as a livestock traceability system, a veterinary electronic medical record system, a production support system, etc., and each of them is permitted to be used by only a part of them. The information of each system is accumulated as one integrated system and can be freely used by anyone. Breeding, breeding and fattening livestock and producing milk and other livestock products This is a management system that allows farmers and veterinarians to record and edit various information such as production information and veterinary information as information managed for each livestock. The present invention relates to a program for realizing a system using a communication terminal (such as a mobile phone or a personal computer) connected to a communication line.

Conventionally, when a consumer accesses a homepage and transmits an ID number assigned to a desired agricultural product, information such as the production area, producer name, variety, cultivation method, harvest date, and quality information of the agricultural product is displayed. There is known a traceability system that can be easily known (Patent Document 1).

Also, an electronic medical record system is known in which an electronic medical record for assisting medical care of a veterinarian is converted to ASP so that a breeder can refer to the information (Patent Document 2).

Furthermore, we obtain milk yield data at the time of milking of dairy livestock such as cows, and by processing this data, generate appropriate feed quantity data for livestock, and operate the automatic feeder with that data to make it suitable for livestock. There is known a producer support system such as a device that feeds a large amount of feed (Patent Document 3).

Workers can view livestock information using a communication terminal with software installed.
The worker activates software installed in the communication terminal.
Entering data display conditions (search conditions such as only a specific livestock, a specific period, the order of increasing milk yield, or the order of decreasing milk volume) on the software will display information on livestock corresponding to that search condition. Is done.
Furthermore, according to this software, it is possible to analyze livestock information and the like, and in the prediction of milk yield, it is also possible to perform prediction using a prediction model formula known so far.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing a procedure when an operator predicts milk yield.
The database stores the model formulas reported so far in advance.
The worker activates the software and inputs parameters such as the weight of the livestock required by the model formula by a method such as an interactive formula, or the worker stored in the database selects from information on livestock fattened etc. .
When the necessary parameters are available, the software calculates the prediction based on the model formula and calculates the predicted milk yield.
The calculated predicted milk yield is displayed on the screen.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing a procedure when the worker designs the feed for feed.
The operator activates the software, and inputs and selects necessary parameters by an interactive method as in the above-described prediction of milk yield.
The software calculates a nutrient requirement amount required by the livestock based on a table of the nutrient requirement amount stored in the database, and outputs a matrix indicating the nutrient requirement amount.
Further, the worker selects the type of feed to be fed to the livestock from the list.
The software outputs the nutrient components per unit amount of feed from the feed component table stored in the database in a matrix format.
In addition, the software calculates the nutrient requirement matrix, and the salary matrix in which the products of the nutrient component fee matrix and the salary matrix (representing how many grams of feed are to be fed in a matrix) are equal.
Thereby, the design of the optimal feed can be performed.

FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing a procedure in which a veterinarian refers to information such as the weight and milk yield of livestock using the “production veterinary support function” of the software.
The veterinarian can refer to information such as the weight and milk yield of livestock using the “Production Veterinary Support Function” of the software.
The veterinarian activates the software installed on the communication terminal, and the communication terminal and the RFID reader that reads the individual identification code recorded on the RFID electronic tag are connected via the communication line and read by the RFID reader. The individual identification code is transmitted to the communication terminal.
The communication terminal transmits the individual identification code of the livestock together with information such as the ID number of the veterinarian to a database connected through the communication line.
The database compares the veterinarian's ID number with the list stored in the database to determine whether or not there is access qualification. Information such as milk yield and weight stored for the livestock to which the code is assigned is transmitted to the communication terminal.

FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing a procedure in which a veterinarian inputs record information such as medication as a record when a livestock is treated.
The veterinarian can input record information such as medication as a record at the time of medical treatment of livestock in the following procedure.
The software installed in the communication terminal of the veterinarian has a menu that allows medical information to be input in an interactive format.
For example, if a veterinarian selects a menu on the software to describe the name of a sickness, the software displays a list of disease names stored in the database and a corresponding number (disease name ID) table. to download.
This table is displayed in the form of a drop-down list or the like on the communication terminal of the veterinarian, and the veterinarian can use it by selecting it.
The disease name ID corresponding to the selected disease name is transmitted to the database as an electronic file in which information such as the individual identification code of the livestock and the ID of the veterinarian is described.
The transmitted electronic file is classified for each individual identification code by the database, and information described in the received electronic file is rearranged in time series for each type of information.
Similarly, information such as the symptoms of livestock, treatments, medication names, etc. are transmitted to the database and stored.
In the database, disease name information, treatment information, and medication information that are transmitted from the communication terminal are integrated for each domestic animal and for each medical treatment, and are generated as an electronic medical record.
The electronic medical record is stored as an electronic file in which livestock individual identification code, medical date, medical veterinarian ID, name, livestock symptom, treatment, wound name, and medication information are recorded.

Next, the type and role of information stored in the database will be described.
In the database, it is important that information is organized and stored for each individual and type of livestock.
Therefore, the database is an index for organizing information (worker list, ranch list, equipment list, etc.), a file for storing the organized information, and a reference for analyzing the organized information. It stores a table of known mathematical models and numerical tables, wound names and sickness IDs for recording medical information of veterinarians.
The types of lists stored in the database are as follows.
`` Worker list '' that lists the qualifications such as worker identification code, name, date of birth, veterinarian, livestock artificial insemination, etc., `` ranch list '' that describes the name and location of the ranch concerned, “Equipment list” with the identification code of the equipment that can be connected to the communication terminal, location, owner, etc., individual identification code (Individual identification code does not overlap with about 12 digits, but in normal management It is cumbersome to use) and the name of the livestock, and the management number used in each ranch (a number of 3 digits or less used for daily management, this number may be duplicated) “Individual identification code list”.
Information on milk volume, weight, and medical care transmitted from the communication terminal is classified by individual identification code based on the above list, and the information described in the received electronic file is arranged in time series for each type of information. Instead, it is stored in the next file on the database.
"Livestock basic information file" that stores basic information such as birth date of livestock, individual identification code of parents, record of childbirth, father, mother individual identification code and artificial insemination recorded during mating `` Mating information file '' that stores information such as the number of semen straws used and the license number of an artificial inseminator, the date of birth recorded at the time of birth, the individual identification code of the parents, the person who confirmed the birth “Birth information file” where information such as name is stored, “Weight information file” where the weight of livestock, date of measurement, identification code of equipment used for measurement, etc. are stored, milk yield at the time of milking, milking Information such as date and time, milking operator, milk quantity information file that stores the identification number of the equipment used for milking, information such as the name of the sickness, symptoms, treatments, drugs used, etc. recorded at the time of medical examination by the veterinarian Stored "medical information file".
