A three-year project known as Milking Edge is a joint initiative of the NSW Department of Primary Industries, Dairy Australia and DeLaval, and aims to support “industry to consider, invest and operate automated milking systems successfully”.
The project is built on a decade of successful research and development led by FutureDairy, as well as the experience of almost 50 commercial AMS farms around Australia who have decided to invest in the technology.
To help dairy farmers better understand whether AMSs are right for them, NSW DPI is hosting an online AMS Farm Showcase on November 30.
The showcase will include presentations from Australian and overseas AMS farmers, service providers and other industry personnel, and will highlight current and future achievements and possibilities of AMS.
It is free to attend, and is targeted at dairy farmers, service providers and other industry members interested in AMS.
