A technology revolution is here and itโs happening right before our eyes. So, to keep improving dairy performance, we must keep up with the latest technology. But where are we regarding tech implementation on dairy farms? We have to take a deeper look at dairy farming to understand the bottlenecks and how technology can help us. In this episode with Aidan Connolly, we talk about technology trends and benefits on dairy farms, the main issues regarding implementation, consolidation, what the future holds for dairy farms, and what we need to change to make that dream a reality.
โI think technology, particularly robots and sensors, is allowing us to get more out of the people we have on the dairy farm, allowing them to do their jobs better.โ - Aidan Connolly
