DeLaval VMS™ V300: A New Experience for Cows and Farmers

For 135 years, DeLaval has nurtured a strong tradition of dairy innovation. Whether the aim has been to improve a physical process, such as harvesting milk, or ease a mental task, like a management decision, the goal has always been to help our customers do better.

DeLaval BCS System optimizes herd health and breeding

You know the story about snowflakes and fingerprints – no two are alike. So goes it with your herd, too. Each cow is an individual requiring unique care. Making a best – and even experienced – guess at when to breed or what to feed your cows is tricky business. The DeLaval body condition scoring BCS system is designed to take the guesswork out of some critical farm management decisions.

DeLaval takes new strides to make organic milk production easier for producers

DeLaval is committed to offering premium solutions to their customers, including organic milk producers. Starting in 2015, we began the process of having several teat dips and CIP (clean in place) products OMRI listed for organic use.

Smart Pulsation means 7% more milk flow

How can pulsation be smart? It is smart when it can optimize the pulsation ratio automatically. It is smart when it can adapt the pulsation ratio to the needs of each and every cow.

Radial VMS™

Think outside the box for robotic milking When considering robotic milking, your solution is only limited by your imagination. If you’re concerned about retaining a current milking model, such as grouping by age, stage, lactation or milk production, you may still be able to utilize robotic milking.

DeLaval Body Condition Scoring (BCS)™

The BCS™ is the world’s first commercially available system for automatic body condition scoring. The system operates while the cows move through a fixed point in the barn or through a DeLaval VMS™.

Making every second count

What could you do with an extra 2 seconds? That fleeting moment in time barely registers as relevant when you consider the more than 31 million seconds that make up a year. However in maximizing your dairy’s production, two seconds per cow quickly adds up.

Winter is Coming

More than just an inconvenience, winter can create health and sanitation problems that can threaten overall productivity. With bitter cold around the corner, be sure to prepare for all its challenges.
