I totally understand having the cows stay inside during the winter or when it’s raining outside. I still think it’s important for cows to graves when there’s sunshine outside. It’s good for them and it’s good for people. Thank you for your great work! Thank you so much for the honesty and transparency! We need more videos like these.
These documentaries are so fascinating to watch, nice job!
Some setup really enjoyed watching.
Love this feature of the family Dad and son looks the business from 🇧🇧 Barbados with love.
Thank you for this very interesting video.
Good show well done 👍👍
Great video very interesting. Thanks
Super video, keep up the good work
Brilliant tour around a great farm. Keep up the good work guys!
Interesting video.
Makes the dairy herd i grew up with look tiny, we milked 120 cows.
This is such a wonderful video. The only question I have is how does the milk taste? What’s the flavor like? My favorite thing to do when I go to the store is to test out different brands of milk or any other product for that matter. You can always tell how much a farmer cares about the food they produce by the way it tastes.
Very beautiful farm
I once visited a farm in NZ where 3800 dairy cows were milked daily. All were grass fed with zero feedlot.
any chance you remember the name of the farm?

Super video, great successful unit 👍
Great video. I would reconsider swapping Afipads to outside of pit to use during milking, Especially to draft cows. Enter 92 is the code I used before to draft. Other than that, lovely setup!
Would like to know what you guys use to keep all your rubber wear(milk line/pulsator tube) together from your clusters
good job sir ;)
Well done
nice farm from indonesia
I often wonder why an operation this size does not form a cooperative with 2 or 3 other producers and go vertical with their milk. This would be milk cheese and yoghurts. The prince of wales seems to be doing ok with the dairy sales
I am a Dairy One milk tester in the states. You guys take your own samples once a month?
We do it twice a month
Yeah I think it’s standard practice across the industry, we do it once a month as well. Is once a month not done in the US?
@@johnwakley7165 I work for a private company that does milk sampling and data collection for all size farms. The farms don't have to use our service but many do. It is not required by the Govt, as long as scc is below standards. I have done it 33 years and mainly deal with farms over 700 cows up to 4000. I have many farms with AFI and a lot with Boumatic.
The big question is, does this extra expense, high input, high output, high labour system lead to more profit over their old grazing system?
Exactly, and the headaches
The farm manager is the one with all the headaches!
Far more headaches grazing. No control over variables
@@cmulli5637 more bills too.
@@DaveG7920no more bills, what we need is a winter without any bills !
Great place to work too
Fresh milk diliciues
My name Ziaur Rahman I live in Qatar. How can i contact the owner of thes farm
Fair play to them they have a great setup and team , I just feel family farms will be gone soon and this will all be the new norm sadly
All I care about is how a product tastes. It’s too bad that farms are focusing more on yield, and I feel like believer can be disregarded at times. It’s not always the case but it’s the norm.
Making over £5 million a year for milking cows that's some going fair play
Hi
Raw cow milk is healthy gift. Pasteurized milk is shit.
NZ will head this way soon,the cost of land,the environmental issues with "winter grazing" of pregnant cows and the needs of our WMP buyers,will all outweigh cows grazing grass here.
Seems strange not to let any cows graze
Hello sir i want job I have 14 years experience for artificial insemination for cow Sir, if you have any job in dairy then please reply to me
Another 50 years for sub-saharan Africa to get here...
