The utilization of Internet of Things (IoT) and big data across various sectors, notably agriculture and animal husbandry, represents a pivotal aspect of contemporary life, significantly impacting the provision of wholesome food. Despite more than two decades passing since the advent of intelligent animal husbandry globally, there remains a scarcity of research regarding its implications for enhancing livestock product yields in Iran. Consequently, this study investigates the ramifications of intelligent animal husbandry within the industrial livestock farms of Semnan and Karaj, with a specific focus on animal welfare, aiming to pinpoint potential challenges and hurdles hindering increased livestock product output. Commencing with extensive literature reviews and expert consultations in the domain of animal husbandry, the research endeavor commenced with the development of a questionnaire as the primary research instrument. Following rigorous validation and reliability assessments of the questionnaire, the collected data underwent analysis utilizing SPSS and Smart PLS software. The findings indicate a direct and positive correlation between intelligent animal husbandry and various influential factors, including human resources, estrus detection, timely disease identification, calving time determination, location tracking, and health and veterinary expenditures. Furthermore, independent and positively mediating variables such as human resources, estrus detection, early disease identification, calving time determination, and health and veterinary costs demonstrate a significant impact on augmenting livestock product yields, albeit with location exerting a mitigating effect on this relationship.
