Question: what are people’s experience of different parlours?? I am looking for good udder health, reliability and as quiet as possible. I currently run Dairymaster equipment which milks cows out fine, but noisy. I have read a bit on the forum about reed pulsation- is there just one parlour...

Herd sizes have significantly grown in recent years and there is a huge shortage of labour, meaning automation can make farm work much easier and safer. Dairymaster is delighted to announce the latest product to its growing portfolio, “DraftNow”, which is a standalone drafting system. It...

The question is would you rather have a shorter easier working day and go home earlier or would you have more days/mornings off? Ramble below. We put 320 to 350 cows through a very nice and well equipped parlour but it's in an old building so exit is slow and handling is non existent. It's...

Interested in what works well (or doesn't!), and approx cost? Our cows have EID ear tags for out of parlour feeders, so makes sense to have a gate that works with them. Ideally three way for grazing season: A) high yielders out to feed yard B) low yielders out to grass C) cows to pick out e.g...

We have an old 1400 litre Desco bulk tank that we suspect might be getting a small leak on the coil somewhere :oops: Has anyone any ideas as to a smallish tank ,preferably with an ice bank ,that might do the trick ,similar in size and maybe 2000 litres ? Thanks :)

Hello fellow Dairy person, I am having trouble with deciding what kinds of design to go to, I am building my new diary barn with initial capacity of 60 cows and will be extended to 120 cows. I have heard flat barn parlour is economic with comparison to elevated parlour like Herringbone parlour...

I am looking to replace a silent herdsman heat detection system and would like to know what people think of the various systems that are available at the moment. I like the silent herdsman system apart from having reliability issues with the collars. So far I have looked at Genus breeder tag...

Considering fitting cluster flush , Wondering what sort of figure per unit it is ? have 12 point swing over

Any one recommend a drafting gate, for a 40 point rotary

I've got a one year old SCR system (marketed & sold by Allflex here in NZ), currently fitted to 200 cows on a pasture based system. It seems to detect cows on heat reasonably well (although not as well as tail paint, but that's just my opinion). My main problem is that about 10-15% of the...

4 year old Fullwood 18 pt swing over, ACR, Milk meters,Conductivity, cluster flush, auto ID, drafting ; controlled by Crystal, is taking the p****. Can work perfectly then randomly will take off units, ID will change.etc. Dealer been out 2 days in a row upgrading and reloading software and it...

Hello, The more I learn about holistic/regenerative agriculture the more it excites me about the possibilities of the future. I'm wanting at some point to buy a farm to start my own dairy herd, and I've so many ideas (some probably misguided or unworkable) rattling around in my head that I'm...

Contemplating a 65 cow unit as a spinoff to a larger conventional milking platform. Just visited a farm running two robots on a grass platform and was very impressed by the set up, run by a very knowledgable young lady, who very kindly and patiently answered our novice questions. Soooo.... been...

Im guessing we have some forum members using autowashers here on their milking machines. I was wondering as to how do they function, does it suck up all the water and send it through the machine and then wait until 90% of it has returned to the wash trough before starting again and repeating...

Looking for opinions on my current parlour upgrade plan, a bit of background we currently milk in a eleven rear old 32/32 Delaval herringbone parlour, Auto I’d, Auto Seg. We do a full routine regards prep and achieve good results and always have two people milking, throughput is about 100 cows...
