The present study aims to identify margins for the improvement of dairy animal welfare and production based on the quality of the human−animal relationship (HAR). The main tool proposed to improve the quality of HAR in dairy animals is training of stock-people by targeting their attitude and behaviour. Given that a good quality HAR may benefit the welfare of dairy animals and productivity, new technologies, by monitoring the handling routine on farm, may be more effective in promoting good practices. In particular, the implementation of new technologies may allow identification of specific inappropriate behaviours to be targeted at stockperson level, thus increasing the efficacy of training. However, an issue related to the introduction of new technologies in the farms, particularly in those that follow traditional farming practices, is the resistance to innovation which may be encountered.

奶牛的人与动物关系

本研究旨在根据人与动物关系 (HAR) 的质量确定改善奶牛福利和生产的边际。提高奶牛 HAR 质量的主要工具是通过针对饲养员的态度和行为进行培训。鉴于优质的 HAR 可能有利于奶牛的福利和生产力，新技术通过监测农场的处理程序，可能更有效地促进良好做法。特别是，新技术的实施可能允许识别特定的不当行为，以针对库存人员级别，从而提高培训效率。然而，与在农场引进新技术有关的问题，特别是那些遵循传统耕作方式的农场，
