OptiDuo™
Push up your milk yield!
Howard Edwards from Shrewsbury, Shropshire, and Liam Roche from Mitchelstown, Co. Cork, share their firsthand experiences with the DeLaval OptiDuo™ robotic feed pusher.
Howard Edwards noticed an increase in milk production and improved forage availability after his OptiDuo™ “Ernie” started. “With more light and space in their new shed, better access to feed with a two-to-one cubicle to feed fence ratio, and the OptiDuo™, we are seeing milk production rise and estimate our yield to go up from 9,500 litres to over 10,000 litres this year,” explains Mr Edwards.
Liam Roche, seeking to reduce the time-consuming task of silage pushing with a tractor multiple times a day, now enjoys a streamlined feeding routine, thanks to the OptiDuo™. Previously, this task would have been done up to 6 or 7 times daily, the last time at 9 pm. With the OptiDuo™ concluding its duties by 3 am, his cows are “leaving the ground licked clean and aren’t hungry by the time we are ready for the morning feed at 6 am.”
With Howard Edwards estimating a rise in milk yield and Liam Roche experiencing a significant reduction in their daily workload, the OptiDuo proves to be a game-changer for farmers seeking efficiency and productivity.
