<p>The present invention relates to the managing of the production and ordering of feed used on a production farm. In the system in accordance with the invention, the production farms (30) have been provided with one or more silos provided with measurement sensors and with scales designed for weighing the animals. In addition, the production farms are provided with a telecommunication connection (31), via which the production farm (30) is connected to a public network (33). Via a public network the production farm (30) communicates with the information system (32) of the farm, which is typically a regular computer, with the information system (34) of the feed supplier and with the information system (37) of the refinery/slaughterhouse. Alarm limits are determined for the degree of filling of the silo and as the degree of filling is lowered below the alarm limit, the animals are weighed and both the farm owner and the supplier are notified of the matter. In this manner, the supplier can determine the composition and amount of the feed to be produced and reserve the transportation capacity needed for the feed delivery.</p> |
