Animals: Farm Dairy

Automatic milking systems are now available in New Zealand – but how do you know if they are an option for your farm?  


Is your shed due for renewal?

A conversion to AMS is capital intensive, have you got the most from your existing dairy?

Is the current site relatively central within the farm?

The ideal location for an AMS dairy is near the middle of the farm so that walking distances are minimised, however the cost of installing services such as power will be higher the further from the road or current dairy.
