For early mastitis detection, the farmer himself can utilize the device at the cow's side and it enables the farmer to identify the illness more quickly, isolate the sick cow, and start the disease's treatment and management. As a result, cow morbidity will decline, milk production will rise, and farmer revenue will also rise."
