Individual monitoring of drinking behavior of dairy cows can be a promising tool to predict individual rupture in daily dry matter intake (DMI) and events such as estrus or health problems. Systems allowing this monitoring could also be easier to install in loose housing barns than DMI individual monitoring systems and they do not add constraints on diet delivery to cows. A new individual monitoring system of drinking behavior consists in connected constant level drinking troughs, equipped with electronic flow meters (EFM) and RFID antennas, allowing a centralized storage, for each individual drinking bout, of time, duration and ID of drinking cow. Twenty four connected drinking troughs were installed at INRA experimental farm (Méjusseaume)...
