DeLaval install first VMS V300 in UK
This first installation was completed by DeLaval dealer Fullwoodhead Dairy Supplies LTD at the Harrison’s family farm in West Linton installing two VMS V300. The Harrison family with 320 Holstein Friesian cows decided to utilise these new robots milking 120 of their highest yielding cows. The remaining cows are still milked using a DeLaval 25/50 Midi-Line Swing-Over Parlour system, installed in 2013.
The 120 cows using the robots are high yielding cows, allowing them to reach their maximum potential optimising productivity. There is currently a vast amount of capacity yet available as idle time sits at over 6 hours per machine! This means that they have the opportunity to add more cows to the system, further utilising the new technology whilst improving work efficiency.
By kind permission of the Harrison family, DeLaval Ltd and their local dealer Fullwoodhead Dairy Supplies Ltd, invite you to attend an Open Day on:
Wednesday 13th March 2019 11am - 4pm
Hyndfordwell Farm, West Linton, EH46 7AA Scotland
