Please watch this video of Homestead Dairy Farm from Plymouth, Indiana, USA. Brian and Jill Houin share their experiences about milking with 36 Lely Astronaut milking robots. Enjoy watching the video. #Lely #DairyXL #BrightFarming

Cost an arm and a leg to buy these machines and 70 cows per unit isn't going to pay for them. Farming is a rough tough business plain and simple, if you don't like it then do something else.
See the thong no one talks about is that the robots are really being pushed hard because there is huge profit margins for them. The truth Is that yes the robots work for some but they arent a one size fits all solution.
36 robots sounds a nightmare. When the day comes that a robot can stand up straight, putting clusters up and give infusion for mastitis then and only then will there be robotic milking. Actually the robotic cow will come first.
I agree one thing a cow needs to be trained as a calf to recognise the robot not what we are hearing of farmers buying cows and forcing them into the machines. The smartest thing on this video is "we get school kids into do the work", now that's using your noggin. Robots are fine on a manufacturing floor, it's going to take many years to get to real automated milking where the robot stands upright and walks around and is capable of milking the cows and treating them for mastitis. The one challenge I would like to ask Lely and others is can you get the ropot make an infusion in the case of mastitis and not simply sending the farmer a text at 2 am in the morning telling him that sweepea has mastitis.
Everyday I see these robots being sold for a fraction of what they cost. I see ads with robotic machines selling less than 20 thousands euro and are not selling. Farming is a tough business and the co ops don't want to pay for the milk anyway.
