320 cows started up this week on 5 A5s in Co Tipperary. Split into 3 groups for start up. Farmer was well set up with pens and gates to funnel cows. Day 1 all cows milked twice on robots. Day 2 cows were walking into robot themselves and that night even 30 milked themselves
Five robot start-up in Tipperary today, 320 cows all gone through the robots - every cow milked. Spring calving grass based system.
"With effect from 1 October 2028, the slurry storage capacity required per dairy cow will be 0.40m3/cow/week, which is up from the current 0.33m3/cow/week requirement – this is an increase of 21% in storage" - Draft nitrates action plan -

Why make the change to robots?
Brian caught up with Denis Mulcahy from Newcastlewest, Co. Limerick at the Ploughing to hear why he made the switch and how it’s working for his farm.

Looks like it's going to be tight for someone to apply to the council for an exemption and have it back in time to apply for the next TAMS deadline of 5th December.
