Abstract of the proposed UNIPhD research project
The creation of new phenotypes through infrared technology, together with the use of the “INTAQT” database and the application of machine learning, offer the possibility of providing important knowledge and solutions to the main problems facing the dairy industry, in the short-term and long-term. In addition, within its objectives, not only is it contemplated to include this information in selection programs, but this knowledge can be used as a useful tool for decision-making in a production level.
