We had a 4 stall Surge system in late 50’s on. Real similar to yours, our Harvestore for high moisture corn was close enough that it was run up above in bins and gave the cows their rations by small electric motors. They got their daily corn while milking, not in the silage in the bunk. Same pull rope method for in and out. Worked well, local schools brought classes thru for field trips. Still miss milking. Great video, thx for the memory trip....
Really enjoyed watching!! Love to see you working in this parlor! So calm and easy going, taking your time milking the ladies! That's one thing I miss about our old barn when we milked fewer than 100 cows, now I have to keep going to get 270 cows through the parlor.. Excited to see more videos!
first time ive seen a milking parlor like this, as a dairy farmer myself i find it very interesting to see what others are doing out in the world. thanks for the video!
At the dairy I grew up in as a teenager, we had six cows on one side of the pit milking all at once while we were getting the six on the other side of the pit ready. Thank you for the memories.
Great video. I enjoy watching your milking operation and the way you explain everything. Very nice operation and cows are very calm. You guys have done well with them. Keep up the great work so we all can enjoy our milk products!!! Thank you!!
