| Abstract | Currently, robotics is used in various branches of agriculture. The main objective of the study is to identify benefits and assess the economic efficiency of using robotics in cattle feeding. The direct object of study is a robot feed pusher, it was tested in one of the agricultural organizations of the Middle Urals. The feed pusher refers to agricultural robots, it has a body, track rollers, reversible DC drives, a control unit and other elements, designed to move on the farm along the feed passage, while moving and mixing the feed into a homogeneous mass. The main advantages of using the food pusher robot are saving labour costs, increasing animal productivity, reducing feed losses as a result of irregular consumption by animals. The total economic effect of using the food pusher robot is 1,435.6 thousand rubles per year with a return on investment of 87.8%, and a payback period is 407 days. Limitations for the mass use of these robots may be the lack of free cash assets at farmers to introduce these robots, poor development or lack of rural infrastructure and possible unwillingness of workers to its introduction. The use of a feed pusher in cattle feeding has a number of undeniable advantages that expect an increase in the use of this type of robotics. |
