Abstract
Smart technologies and its application have shown great promise for the modernization of extension services in both developed and developing countries. Improving rural livelihoods through smart technologies is one of the key areas, which has potential to change the livestock economy. Enormous increase in the mobile and internet users has ushered in a revolution in ICT research and development. We wouldn’t be wrong if we dubbed this period the “ICT Era”. The government of India’s Digital India Mission, as well as telecom providers’ provision of affordable pricing to subscribers, have cleared the road for internet technology to reach everyone’s doorstep. Many public and private organizations involved in research related to the livestock sector have developed many such ICTs for the use of livestock farmers. Improved package of practices are being provided to the farmers by the use of mobile apps, expert systems, and web portals whereas the regular advisories are provided to them through tele-services, SMS and Remote Sensing based tools. The animals are being identified by the use of RFID tags which are helping livestock farmers as well as the resource-based companies for resource disposal. Furthermore, the farmers are connected to peers through social media and mobile telephony like Kisan Call Centre. The new buzzword, i.e. artificial intelligence (AI) through its diverse applications has the potential to revolutionize the livestock industry, like; artificial neural networks, deep learning, machine learning, natural language processing, cloud computing, block chain technology, internet of things, precision farming, sensor based systems, robotics, and so forth. It is also predicted that AI will lead in the world’s “fourth industrial revolution”. which will be a digital revolution. All of these technologies work together to create an “Information Web” for farmers, which is in charge of disseminating timely livestock development information. This chapter details the ICTs which are in use by the livestock farmers and the ones which are yet to come.
