Abstract: A system and method for animal feed management for a dairy farm, include a feed management server configured to monitor activities of a plurality of entities in a defined area of the dairy farm by a plurality of sensing devices. The monitored activities include at least a free-style grazing activity by a plurality of dairy animals included in the plurality of entities. An amount of milk yielded by each dairy animal of the plurality of dairy animals is estimated based on the monitored activities. A feed composition for each of the plurality of dairy animals is determined based on the determined amount of milk yielded by corresponding dairy animal and the monitored activities. A loading device, which loads a feed container with the determined feed composition for the first dairy animal, is controlled to manage consumption of the feed composition by the first dairy animal.
