Abstract
Disclosed is an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based livestock management system and a livestock management method therefor. According to the inventive concept, it is possible to determine whether the animal has abnormal symptoms by learning the standard livestock stall management data and analyzing the body temperature information and behavior information of livestock from livestock image data obtained in real time from livestock such as cattle, thus giving the manager confidence.

- predict mounting situation including a number of objects before estrus, an expected time in estrus, a number of expected objects in estrus, and an expected period in non-pregnant condition by monitoring behavior information of an object in estrus determined as having the mounting symptom,
- generate information on the predicted mounting situation and transmits the information to the manager terminal, and
- generate a signal capable of enabling the object in estrus and a target object expected to be mounted by the object in estrus to be located in a same space by using the information on the mounting situation and transmit the signal to the livestock stall control device when the object in estrus is determined as having the mounting symptom in case of predicting the mounting symptom.
