What’s wrong with Breeder tag?

Pleased with it? Ours is being installed next month

Sudacream mixed with blue spray

Hay buster is the one.

Anyway... Arla hold for October.

You still 3x?

Short term, maybe 3x a day and get milking times down to 3 hours each. Longer term. 300 cows and robots.

470 cows here 400 in milk currently. Split into low and high yielders, through a 32:32 takes 2 people 4hrs AM and 3.5 PM including washing down etc. Roughly 12,000 litres/day
