Feeding operations in dairy cow farms are of strategic importance for the economy of the farm. Aside from being strictly related
to the productivity of the cows, feeding represents one of the greater costs for farms, considering that more than 25 % of labour
time is dedicated to this operation.

Automatic feeding (AF) systems for totally or partially mixed rations (TMR or PMR) are expected to reduce labour
demand and stimulate cows’ activity promoting visits to both the feeding devices and the automatic milking (AM)
system.
