Скачать или смотреть Potty Trained Cows? Transform Farming with Technology | Dr. Alison Vaughan, PhD | TEDxChilliwack

My name is Dr Alison Vaughan. I’d like to share with you some of the exciting ways in which technology can be used to increase the welfare of farm animals and reduce the environmental impact of farms. More specifically, I’d like to share with you my experiences of potty training cows! This idea is not as crazy as it first sounds. In fact, I hope to persuade you that potty training cows could revolutionize the way we house dairy cattle and serve as a template for how technology can be utilized to address other challenges in production animal care.
