That is what I wonder, when the robot goes down what happens...................I went to school for machining and robotics, sooner or later it will go down, then what. A robot loader loading a VMC CNC machine goes down, your down one out of acouple normally which costs production but it isn't the end of the world, but when you only got one feeding living animals and it goes down, what is the backup plan? Guys I seen with robotic milkers have more than one, but all the robot feeding setups I seen, its just one?????
My fantasy is a individual TMR system, where it's possible to robotically mix a TMR for each cow, and put it in front of only her. For a smaller herd, this would be a game-changer, in that everyone can be housed as a single group. All yearlings, bred heifers, springers, close-ups, fresh cows, tail-enders, drys, and culls can all come and go to pasture together, and they can each access a TMR in the barn that meets their specific needs. |
Silo looks good Jay!!!
