This project addresses the overall ISCF aim of Transforming Food Production by aiming to demonstrate the technical and commercial feasibility of Davlec's Automated Milk Sampling Device (AMSD) and Clarity's Lateral Flow (LF)Reader and test for progesterone in cow's milk. Providing an easy to use and cost-effective progesterone tests to work alongside the farmer's usual heat detection method aims to give him/her more precise information on the optimal timing for insemination, thereby increasing the likelihood of successful inseminations and reducing the number of days between calves; the calving interval (CI). Reducing the CI also addresses the specific competition aim of driving productivity in ruminant production systems by enhanced decision support with a technology solution and system.

该项目旨在证明Davlec的自动牛奶采样设备(AMSD)和Clarity的横向流动(LF)读取器的技术和商业可行性，以及牛奶中孕酮的检测，从而实现ISCF改造食品生产的总体目标。提供一种易于使用且经济实惠的黄体酮检测方法，与农民通常的热量检测方法配合使用，旨在为农民提供关于最佳受精时机的更准确信息，从而增加受精成功的可能性，并减少产犊间隔天数(CI)。降低CI还解决了通过技术解决方案和系统增强决策支持来提高反刍动物生产系统生产率的具体竞争目标。
