This Recommendation provides an overview of smart livestock farming (SLF) based on IoT, high-level requirements for SLF and a reference model which represents a generic sequence for livestock value chains.

SLF is a convergence service in which information and communication technologies (ICTs) are applied to the livestock value chains. It has the potential to deliver more productive and sustainable production by integrating processes of smart farming, management information systems (MISs), stockbreeding automation and robotics to provide better decision-making or more effective exploitation operations and management of livestock value chains.

The scope of this Recommendation includes:

– an overview of SLF;

– an SLF conceptual model;

– high-level requirements of SLF;

– a reference model for SLF from the perspective of the IoT; and

– security considerations.
