[QUOTE="Jdunn55, post: 7019119, member: 81760"] In terms of motivation, ask the staff what they want, what they're interested in etc. Some may be interested in helping formulate rations etc, some in breeding/pedigrees some in showing, some may like calf rearing, some may like heifer rearing. Some might like doing some field work. Give them the opportunity to do some stuff they really enjoy and they wont mind doing some stuff they like less. In terms of parlour and cows, either forget the 32:64 and put in a rotary or else lower your cow numbers. You will regret it if you dont, namely because you're staff will hate it. 4 hours of milking on a rotary wouldn't be too bad as you're in the same spot, in a herringbone of that length you'll be running a marathon every day just milking. I couldn't think of anything worse personally and I love milking. Personally I would have said you're asking the wrong people though. We arent going to be milking for you. Those who are should be who you're asking. [/QUOTE]
