Automatic milking systems, farm size, and milk production.
Automatic milking systems (AMS) offer relief from the demanding routine of milking. Although many AMS are in use in Europe and a few are used in the United States, the potential benefit for American farms is uncertain. A farm-simulation model was used to determine the long-term, whole-farm effect of implementing AMS on farm sizes of 30 to 270 cows. Highest farm net return to management and unpa...
متن کاملEstimating efficiency in automatic milking systems.
Milking data of 34 single automatic milking system (AMS) units on 29 Galician dairy farms were analyzed to determine the system capacity in each farm under actual working conditions. Number of cows, milk yield, milkings per cow per day, actual milking time, rejected milking time, cleaning time, and machine downtime were used to determine the number of cows milked per AMS unit to obtain the opti...
متن کاملDairy Cow Welfare in Automatic Milking Systems
INTRODUCTION With any housing or feeding system employed for dairy cattle, careful consideration should be made to both the individual’s and herd’s well-being. Providing optimal welfare for dairy cows is a multifaceted and challenging task. Factors such as good herd management, adequate barn environment, automated milking system (AMS) management, social dynamics of the herd, and human-animal in...
متن کاملStochastic human fatigue modeling in production systems
The performance of human resources is affected by various factors such as mental and physical fatigue, skill, and available time in the production systems. Generally, these mentioned factors have effects on human reliability and consequently change the reliability of production systems. Fatigue is a stochastic factor that changes according to other factors such as environmental conditions, work...
متن کاملGenetic parameters of production traits in automatic and conventional milking systems
Milk recordings of 1297 animals from 23 farms with automatic (AMS) and 20555 animals from 616 farms with conventional milking systems (CMS) were analysed. The data was collected within the years 2001 – 2003. Recordings were available for milk-kg, fat and protein content from the first three test days of each cow after calving. Genetic parameters between AMS and CMS recordings for each single te...
