Description
Summary:The automation of monitoring livestock activities using various types of sensors is increasingly in various countries. The application of its technology in Indonesia still requires adjustment database, considering the Indonesia and the producer countries climate differences will affect the physiological and behavior of livestock. This research was made to get daily lying behavior profile of cows that on the luteal phase. That can be made into a database in cattle monitoring automation technology. A total of 8 healthy Ongole cows are placed in individual tied stall. Oestrus syncronizing was done to get luteal phase in all research materials. Lying duration recorded by Time Lapse Camera (TLC) at intervals of 2 minutes non-stop. Each photo has value 2 minutes duration and be tabulated by the Exceel 2010 software. Statistic parameter such as means, standard errors, standard deviations, kurtosis and skewness was calculated in the interval of 1 hour, 3 hours and 6 hours. The results showed that at the 1 hour interval, the highest lying behavior at 03.00 hours at 90.63 ± 17.60%, the lowest at 08.00 hours at 5.99 ± 13.55% and it has potential for alert activation at 3:00, 4:00, 5:00 and 8:00. The highest lying behavior duration on 3 hour intervals occurred at 03.00-06.00 with 87.67%, the lowest at 09.00-12.00 with 19.79%. At the 6 hour intervals, the highest lying behavior duration on 00.00-06.00 hour intervals at 83.83 ± 10.88%, the lowest on 06.00-12.00 hour intervals at 15.48 ± 15.48% and it has potential for alert activation at 00.00-06.00. The 6 hour interval is the most feasible to be chosen as the standard profile lying behavior, because it have the lowest standard deviation, which is 10.01%.
