    When I used to ride with my brother in law picking up milk the colonies around Kindersley and Rosetown were always spotless on the inside of their milk rooms. I bet that indoor cow barn really set your wheels spinning. No more flooded corrals in the spring, no more frozen manure build up and best of all no more bunks to shovel!

    SaskDutch Kid. I enjoy your videos. I grew up in south western Ontario and as a young teen our neighbour got hurt working with his Jersey herd. The neighbours got together and went to work milking the herd including my mother who was a full on city girl. There were 60 head busy times. The next summer I worked with a farmer who was milking about 25 head of Holsteins not unlike your herd. I learned a lot that summer but the following summer a friend talked me into working in the Tobacco Harvest. We made a lot more money and I stuck with that work until I was done High School. Things have sure changed since the 1960's. What a professional job your family does. Living in Calgary now.

    This farm was really interesting! Looked up the Colony and thought what an interesting way to live. In the Willamette River valley here in Oregon we have a number of Mennonites. They too have dairies. Oh and we have really great dairy here. So many cows are pasture fed! This tour was one of my favs. The variety of equipment, the cleanliness and the dedication for a top notch dairy was good to see. Those brothers were “a hoot”!

    What an interesting video showing the recent innovations in dairy farming. First, I am awe struck on the vast flat fields of land also noted on your own farm in Saskatchewan. The brothers and representative did a great job explaining the facilities and specific items during the tour. It certainly is a beautiful facility. Questions: 1-On the robots, certainly seems like a more sanitary way of milking. Does someone have to be on call if there is a problem? Also, how do they determine if a cow doesn't go into the corral to be milked other than visually checking? They showed the bull pens, so they don't do AI? Yikes, grown bulls are dangerous. The heifer raising facilities are amazing and so clean. Would that be something you could see in the future for your farm (especially in the winter)? Jan, you excel in all you do to bring us interesting and daily views into dairy farming, thank you!!!

    Really enjoy seeing your families farm always very impressive in its own right. But also enjoy seeing what other farms operations look like weather it be here at home or in the US. I've watched from day one and I'm still amazed at the amount of capital that's been invested and reinvested in all of the farms. And I'm just talking about the buildings, milking equipment, feed mills and rolling equipment. I can't imagine what the live stalk is worth.

    Thanks a million for doing these tour videos, I travel quite a bit around Europe and see many farms here but I don’t get to visit North America often, in fact the last time I visited your neck of the woods back in the 80’s it was all tie up byres and enormously labour intensive. I love these videos as I may as well dream looking at them as in bed, I remember visiting a Hutterite place in Canada way back they were milking about 40 cows in a lofted barn with a bucket plant fine in the day but they had some very good cows giving 50 to 60 kgs a day and ( the bucket only held about 25 kgs I think and they had a few cows that they had to stop milking to put a new bucket on ( mad stuff) they were going to put in a pipe line with six units to speed up the milking because the vacuum line they had limited them to 3 units, and they were going to 3 times a day milking when they had it installed. I think those guys would be completely blown away if they were transported to this place. We milk the same amount of cows as those guys but we couldn’t afford to build a unit like this in our wildest dreams, it would cost us about €3500,000 to put this up.
