The trend towards larger herds with greater efficiency means there is a high demand for fast throughput parlours. In addition, milk buyers are looking for higher standards of hygiene, with a clear separation between "clean" and "dirty" areas in the parlour.
Side-by-Side group milking parlours from WestfaliaSurge meet these requirements with a highly customisable solution. One of the key advantages of Side-by-Side parlour is the closer cow spacing, resulting in shorter travelling distances for both operator and animal. This, along with the simultaneous exit of all animals in a batch, results in more cows per operator per hour which in turn gives higher efficiency and quicker return on investment.
