Design of Precision Breeding System for Pigs Based on DDE

Abstract:

The pig farming industry in China has realized a rapid growth in recent years, but the breeding facilities and technologies are still relatively backward compared to those in developed countries. The intelligent precision breeding system proposed in this study are used to identify commercial pigs , collect the data of feed intake and weight, obtain feed conversion rate and increase efficiency of farming enterprises. Besides, the system is designed with an electronic pounds module and radio frequency identification (RFID) module. The software of King View with strong function is chosen to practice managing the collected data and monitoring in time in the upper computer monitoring system. Because there is no driver for RFID module in King View, the study has focused on the dynamic data exchange (DDE) technology, which is applied to accomplish the communication between RFID site and the data of King View. The practical application shows that the system operates steadily and the application scope of King View is extended.
