Automatic Milking Robots

Former Member

This is a concern or a doubt from my side. We use Automotive robotic milking in dairy farms for collecting milk. Is this effective or harmful? How can we make it better?

What all are the other machineries that help to boost agriculture?

  • There are robot milking machines now available. They do take out some of the work but don't necessarily deskill the other work.

     

    The cows seem to like it as it lets them choose milking times but you still have to look after them although the monitoring of milk quality and quantity can be done by the machine, it still takes a seasoned eye to spot potential problems. It appears to take only a couple of sessions for them to get used to them.

     

    These machines are part of a complete system, there are out of parlour feeding systems that tailor feed quantities and mixture to cows during their lactation, and fertility/rumination monitoring sensors.
