Описание: Artificial Intelligence: https://ruminants.ai/

Welcome to Fazenda Azeredo, in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.

In this video, you will discover the impressive journey of the Azeredo Family, who transformed a traditional pasture-based system into a modern Compost Barn, achieving an average of 41 liters of milk per cow/day with only 44 cows in milk.

The farm, managed by Gabriel Azeredo, represents the evolution of family dairy farming in the state, combining technical management, animal welfare, and the use of technology to ensure high productivity and sustainability.

📍 Location: Broxi, Rio Grande do Sul – Brazil
🐄 Herd: 44 cows in milk
🥛 Production: 41 liters/cow/day
💡 Production system: Compost Barn
🌾 Feeding: TMR with corn silage, cottonseed, barley, hay, and balanced concentrate.

🏗 Infrastructure and management

A 55 m x 20 m barn with automated ventilation and an independent feed alley.
Smart fans activated at 21 °C and turned off at 20 °C.
A 15-meter-wide sawdust bed, stirred up to 3 times a day to maintain fermentation and comfort.
Two milkings per day, synchronized with bedding management and feeding.
New climate-controlled milking parlor and rapid-cooling tank, ensuring hygiene and milk quality.

🔬 Nutrition and technical control

Diets formulated based on silage analysis through the LabNutris laboratory.
Focus on starch digestibility and particle size evaluated with the Penn State shaker box.
Monthly monitoring of urea, fat, protein, and SCC — maintaining averages between 200,000 and 250,000 somatic cells.
Dry cows kept separate with an anionic pre-fresh diet, eliminating retained placenta cases and improving postpartum performance.

📈 Progress and results

Switching from pasture to confinement increased average production from 18–20 L to 41 L/cow/day.
Reduction in mastitis and hoof problems after implementing the Compost Barn.
Silage with 36% starch and 34% dry matter, ensuring stability and high intake.
Integrated technical team: reproduction, nutrition, and forage analysis with monthly follow-ups.

🌱 Vision and legacy

The success of Fazenda Azeredo is the result of family planning, smart use of technology, and continuous technical support.
Gabriel, together with his father Ildo Romario de Azeredo, demonstrates how it is possible to maintain rural tradition with efficiency, animal welfare, and quality of life.
