Irish Dairy Farm: MILKING ROUTINE

Hey guys, welcome back to our channel! We really hope you enjoy this milking routine. We shot this video over a couple of different days (see how many differences you can spot!), so that we could get lots of different viewpoints for you guys. Hopefully you'll get an idea of what it feels like to milk in our parlour with us.
As we mentioned in our Milking Parlour tour video, we have a 20-unit Boumatic Gascoigne milking parlour with swing over arms and ACRs. We have a circular collecting yard with a backing gate, and manual drafting. Our wash cycle is manual. We've a 13,300L bulk tank with auto-wash.
Let us know in the comments if there is anything else around the farm you would like to see, especially if you're not from Ireland and there is anything that really interests you. We really hope you're enjoying the farm videos so far.
Please give this video a big thumbs up if you enjoyed it and hit subscribe, that would mean a lot to us.
Lots of love,
PK, MK & Freya xx

    Wow! You have an amazing set up. Very efficient. The gates used to move the cattle around are well thought out. I see they have pastured in the good weather, but how are they housed in the winter? How big is your farm? How many do you milk and how many replacement heifers? Do you use AI or do you have bulls on sight? Anyway, very impressive and a pleasure to watch. Thank you for posting.

    The cows marked with white are the cows that we draft out during milking. The red paint is for breeding. We paint it on their back & it helps us find out when the cows are ready for breeding 😄

    Dairy farmers have no regard for water charges hahah. A lot of water used like. Could you tell us how much litres of water are used per liter of milk produced. Ive never been on a dairy farm they all use a lot of water I'm sure

  • @Bearded_Tall_Guy

    Жыл бұрын

    If they use 50-100liters doing washing which is required by law. That's a small price to pay for clean conditions... In terms of how much water is used per liter of milk well the water don't just disappear when a cow pee or when the milk is drank. So technically less than 1 liter of water is what 1 liter of milk is.

    Pádraig converted the home farm to dairying in 2014 and started out with 45 in-calf heifers. We have been very lucky with grants & the opportunity to lease additional ground. This has allowed us to build up to the numbers we have today. I'm hoping to record a farm information video this week so I'll put the history of the farm in that. Let us know if you'd like to know anything else :)
