Abstract

This research is done to demonstrate the applicability of machine learning models in automatic prediction of egg production in poultry farm systems. Unprocessed data were collected from a commercial egg farm daily over a period of one year. Other similar works require prior feature extraction by a poultry expert, and this method is dependent on time and expert knowledge. The present approach will help the administrator of the farm to track the egg production in the poultry farm system for the whole farm or a specific shed for better utility in ensuring sustainable supply chain management for the industry. The primary objective of automating this prediction system is to provide a more accurate, efficient, and reliable outcome. While developing this machine learning model for forecasting, we utilized the ARIMA model under time series analysis and it is implemented and coded in Python using various relevant libraries. The accuracy of the proposed model is 59.21% for monthly analysis.
