Pirie Farms, New Zealand

“Until we built the new rotary we were running four cowsheds on four properties. We had to look at what options we could to centralise the business and make it into the neat operation that we have today".

"We looked around at different companies and also different sizes and styles sheds and, we felt for us, the 70 Bail DeLaval rotary was what we needed. It was easy to use, easy to clean and future technology going forward could be added to the core product".

"We’re now milking all the 800 odd cows in just over an hour, forty minutes, with just two staff. It’s definitely centralised and rationalised our business and staff".

"The service that we’ve got from DeLaval has been outstanding. We’ve always had good backup and good training for our staff and ourselves. The project has gone really well".
