The project in brief
The consortium will develop new analytical methods and
early-warning systems to increase milk quality in today’s
milking systems and contribute to the innovative development of future milking technology. The perspective is
reduced waste and increased productivity of dairies and
milk producers and increased sales of new technological
solutions from equipment manufacturers.
