Digital transformation of agriculture is a part of the federal strategy, the purpose of which is to modernize and increase the efficiency of the industry, to introduce digital technologies and platform solutions to ensure a technological breakthrough in the agricultural sector. Dairy cattle breeding is the largest livestock sub-sector of the Russian Federation. Demand for automated milking, feed preparation and herd management systems is growing in this country. The purpose of the study is to determine the prospects for the upgrading of dairy cattle breeding within the framework of existing strategic documents and the availability of domestic developments. It has been established that currently there are some domestic developments, including those in the field of dairy cattle robotics that are more affordable, which could replace expensive foreign counterparts. Therefore, the dissemination of information about domestic developments in this area is a very urgent task to improve production efficiency in the industry.
