“…The effect of treatment with probiotic cleaning agents is achieved through the colonization of treated surfaces with cultures of probiotic bacteria ( B. subtilis ), which inhibit the development of pathogenic microflora [ 19 , 20 ]. In the process of developing a consortium of probiotic cultures for use in the sanitation of dairy farms, we separated isolates from the skin flush of the udder of healthy cows.…”

Objective: In this work, the effect of probiotics on the state of the microbial background of the livestock building, on the state of udder teats, and on the prevalence of latent mastitis was investi¬gated. Long-term use of the consortium has bactericidal activity against all cultures studied, especially the causative agent of mastitis, Staphylococcus aureus, except Proteus mirabilis, Proteus vulgaris, and Escherichia coli. Materials and Methods: The washes from animal housings and milk samples were collected from the dairy farms “Astana-Onim” Joint Stock Company and “Rodina” Limited Liability Partnership (Kazakhstan). The cleaning solutions and probiotic agents were applied directly to the udder teats of cows before and after milking. Diagnosis of subclinical mastitis was performed using the Kenotest rapid mastitis test. Directly counting the number of somatic cells in the collected milk samples from each cow was performed on a somatic cell counter. Results: Pathogenic microorganisms, including S. aureus bacteria (50% of samples) and bacteria of the E. coli group, Enterobacter aerogenes, and P. mirabilis (36% of samples), were detected on the udder skin and milk wipes. Using a consortium of probiotic microorganisms positively affects the mammary gland more quickly than using mastitis prevention agents alone. Probiotic use for a month resulted in a significant improvement in udder teat condition, with 60.7% of teats showing normal physiological reaction to milking, a decrease in complicated hyperkeratosis, and an increase in uncomplicated mastitis. The studies showed that in the experimental group, there was a 1.5-fold reduction in the number of cows with clinically pronounced mastitis. The experimental group showed no significant changes in the number of animals with high somatic cell levels before and after the study, while the control group without probiotics had a significant increase in dis¬eased animals after 1 month. Conclusion: The use of a probiotic consortium has shown promising results in reducing the inci¬dence of mastitis and improving milk quality in cows.

The article presents the livestock structural and hardware implementations, the element base of digital intelligent microclimate control’s systems, the tasks must be solved in the light of microclimate quality imposed by livestock production modern technologies’ requirements are formulated. It is shown that the microclimate quality by changing of heating (cooling) power and air exchange equipment based on air environment’s temperature, humidity, and carbon dioxide content’s measurements is provided. An animals’ premises microclimate parameters’ automatic discrete-analog-digital control has been developed. The livestock farm premises’ microclimate system controlling hardware implementation’s scheme, including two levels: an electronic computer (farm), controllers with control and measuring devices, an interface, and executive devices (premises) has been developed. The information flows in the control system are determined: tasks are sent from the computer to the controllers for the current values of temperature, humidity, air pollution in the rooms, controllers in communication with measuring devices (radio channel), ventilation, heating (cooling) control devices. An example of the optimal microclimate control system’s effectiveness on 1300 heads of pigsty-feedlot is shown.
