PROSPECTS FOR USE OF TECHNICAL CYBERNETICS IN ANIMAL HUSBANDRY

Digitization of technological processes in the past few decades is one of the actively developing areas of scientific thought. This is due to improvement of the computer technology, software and is determined by the need to optimize technological processes in various sectors of economy in general, and in animal husbandry in particular. Scientific basis and methodology for creation and operation of automated process control systems (ACS TP) is developed by technical cybernetics. Within this scientific discipline, there is its own arsenal of methodological and technical tools, the basic basis of which is the use of strictly formalized models for describing objects and their management objectives. Within these models, the locations for fixing technological information, its volumes, processing algorithms, forms of storage and types of practical use are clearly defined. The operation of any technological equipment must be supported by its internal control system at an optimal level. In this case, the design of the control system itself does not matter. The only important thing is that it is an inseparable attribute for any production process and technical device that has a non-zero set of operating states. This class of objects includes almost all agricultural machinery, mechanized processes and technologies. In conducting this study, such methods as monographic, analytical, abstract-logical, economic-statistical, scientific deduction and induction, comparison, quantitative and qualitative analysis, mathematical modeling, and others were used. As a result of the study, from the standpoint of technical cybernetics, the prospects for its use in animal husbandry to solve many management tasks, including solving problems of managing a dairy farm, and improving the efficiency of basic technological operations, were studied.
