In animal husbandry, evaluation of the livestock by human requires to registration records for the different traits of each animals. This information will be used for decision on selection or culling the animals. This recording process is usually costly and time-consuming. Image processing is one of the important branches of artificial intelligence in which the features of digital or animated images are used to identify and make decisions about individual, objects or subjects. Use of this technology, especially in the last two decades is common as a replacement for human diagnosis in many topics such as military, medical, aerospace, identification, robotics, security systems, etc. To improve the assessment accuracy and its easiness, in recent years, the use of image processing technology is started in agriculture and animal husbandry to evaluate the quantity and quality of animal products and byproducts. So, in this paper, the image processing technology and some of its important functions are introducedin animal husbandry.
