"We went with robotic milking to reduce the stress on both staff and the cows and to basically find an easier way to milk cows". John Fisher, Farm Owner
John Fisher - Farm Owner "We chose DeLaval because we thought their machine would suit our purposes best".
"I worked through with a number of companies and decided the DeLaval machine was
going to fit my grass based system the best. I was comfortable that their machine was
going to stand up to my cows and to the potential abuse they might get from the cows".
"It is a big deal changing from conventional milking to robotic milking but DeLaval have been there with us all the way helping us work through the computer software. We have now got heaps of information that is being recorded for each cow and it is going to enable huge changes in how we manage the cows and the farm".
"The cows have adapted very quickly to the units and the stress has come right off the cows. I thought it would have been quite a challenge and would take a long time to get the cows to adapt to the robotic milking system but it has been quite remarkable how quickly thay have adapted and started strolling in on their own".
"Any issues that have cropped up, DeLaval have been there to solve them".
