Elements and systems of automated management of the dairy herd, questions of prompt and reliable evaluation of their economic efficiency using the proposed information system are considered. The market offers various options for automated herd management, accompanied by expert assessments of technological and production effects. However, to make decisions on the economic viability of new solutions, clear algorithms and information systems are needed to convert this data into economic effects and economic efficiency assessments. Official statistics for the Russian Federation and the Southern Federal District formed the base of this study. Design calculations were performed for one of the agricultural organizations of the Krasnodar Territory. The research results were obtained using discounting methods, mathematical modeling, programming in SQL, as well as the original method of transforming non-standard cash flow by highlighting its multidirectional members. The calculations performed using the information system made it possible to evaluate the considered innovations as cost-effective, with short payback periods and high profitability. This allowed us to conclude that the automated management of the dairy herd is promising not only from the technological, but also from the economic point of view.
