[QUOTE="Scholsey, post: 6670047, member: 784"] 1) Daily work schedule Varies, 7am start, late/fresh cows, feed calves, feed cows, bed cubicles. 4pm late/fresh cows, feed calfs, push silage up. 2) Operation/user friendly Good, but Crystal/uniform not foolproof 3) Reliability and service support. Good but could be better 4) Energy consumption Around 15k a year from grid plus 80kw solar for 1,500,000 litres 5) Performance/ milk yield/ quality Good think it gets the best out of a cow within reason 6) Animal health and management Spend more time with the right cows, forget some easy to get in calf exist until I have to dry them off 7) Profitability pardon? 8) Other issues /lifestyle/management spend far more time with my kids than my father did with me even if someone that is whilst I am fixing a robot and they are passing me tools! Easier to get staff 9) ONE key item you would change fullwood having a bit more drive 10) General summary Happy, had them 4 years so might not be allowed to participate, think they are the most farmer friendly way of milking cows possibly not the most bank friendly.
