THE U.S. SWINE INDUSTRY IS FACING INCREASING CHALLENGES, INCLUDINGLABOR SHORTAGES ANDTHE NEEDFOR IMPROVED ANIMAL HEALTH AND WELFARE, AND FARM PROFITABILITY. WHILE NEW PRECISION LIVESTOCK TECHNOLOGIES, SUCH AS WEARABLE SENSORS AND COMPUTER VISION,OFFER PROMISING SOLUTIONS, SWINE PRODUCERSARE HESITANT TOADOPT THEMBECAUSE THEYLACKA VALUE PROPOSITION AND FARM SUITABILITY INFORMATION. TO BRIDGE THIS GAP BETWEEN INNOVATION AND FARM ADOPTION, OUR PROJECT WILL DEVELOP TESTING STRATEGIES AND EVALUATION TOOLS FOR SWINE PRODUCERS. THIS PROJECT WILL DEVELOPDEDICATED TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER CENTERSEQUIPPED WITH THE REQUIRED NETWORK AND COMPUTER INFRASTRUCTURETO TEST AND EVALUATE TECHNOLOGIES, SIMULATING REAL FARM CONDITIONS. WE WILL ALSO DEVELOP A STANDARDEVALUATION PROCESSTO GUIDE THE PROPERASSESSMENTOF ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, AND IMPLEMENTABILITYOF NEW TECHNOLOGIES. RESULTS OF THIS PROJECTWILL BE SHARED WIDELY THROUGH FACTSHEETS, ONLINE RESOURCES, AND INDUSTRY EVENTS TO INCREASE SWINE PRODUCERS' AWARENESS AND ADOPTION OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES.THIS PROJECT IS CRITICAL TO INFLUENCE AND ACCELERATE THE ADOPTION OF SMART FARMING TOOLS IN COMMERCIAL SWINE BARNS, ENHANCING PRODUCTION EFFICIENCY AND IMPROVING SYSTEM SUSTAINABILITY.
