Can I ask if anyone has started using uniform agri recently? Our fullwood rep has quoted us nearly £500 for a link that will allow the parlour to talk to uniform. It seems a bit steep to me as you then have to pay for the program as well!
Does anyone actually enjoy milk recording!?I forgot to come back to say we are having the Taurus link for free because we were previously running Interherd. It's due to be installed next week. The downside is our Johnes test was due so we had to record this week, it normally takes 15 minutes to download the events from Interherd but it took us four hours to get it all out of crystal. I hate milk recording too!

Interested to see your pics on hereBut now finally we are in the finishing stages of getting to the point when we can mœve back home so to speak.. The Robot should arrive Anytime soon and the Lely collector should arrive in the coming weeks...
Yeah I will upload some pictures pretty soon, nothing fancy really, we sat down after the fire and we had gotten a neighbours barn up and running again after 6-7 years something. Started looking at possibilities depnding on what the insurance company would say and cover.Interested to see your pics on here

After a bitter fight with them about what they would cover and gotten the possibilities of getting investment support from the Finnish goverment, pretty much dead. Because of how they look at insurancemoney and support. We pretty much decided to rebuild it with what the insurance money covered and a Bankloan.
So we decided to build on a budget and manage from there.. In Finland atleast when people build Lely/Delaval concept Barns they to come down to 1 million €+ for one robot...
If nothing special happens, we will finish this project with a budget Around 200 000€ and have 55 cows..
Selling it's the keyMilestone reached yesterday, for the first time we bottled just over 100 litres of milk. That's was from 4 cows, from today we are milking 5. Should add that we sold all the milk too. View attachment 791962
Yep, we try not to waste any.Selling it's the key
Cracking looking cows also.Yep, we try not to waste any.
Another 'key' is to add value, so been having a go at that too. View attachment 791964

No, a few 'landlord issues' mean I'm a bit reluctant to pour more money into his property and him to expect us to not claim any improvements if we leave. It's a long story!Have you finished the parlor yet? When you've got all 7 milking you might want that extra unit.
