Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming livestock farming by improving efficiency, productivity, and animal welfare. This review explores the impact of AI on livestock management, its applications, and challenges. AI, first coined in 1956, is now widely used in livestock farming for tasks such as animal identification, health monitoring, and automated feeding. Technologies like drones, robots, and blockchain are being used to enhance farm operations, reduce labor costs, and improve data collection. AI enables farmers to monitor animal behavior, detect health issues, and optimize feeding strategies, leading to better productivity and sustainability. However, challenges such as high development costs, data privacy concerns, and the potential for automation to replace human roles remain. The review highlights the importance of AI in addressing global food security and environmental sustainability, while emphasizing the need for further research and development to overcome existing limitations. AI is a powerful tool that can revolutionize livestock farming, but its successful implementation requires careful planning, data management, and collaboration between farmers, researchers, and policymakers.Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming livestock farming by improving efficiency, productivity, and animal welfare.
