    Congratulations on your new adventure, best of luck! Great seeing younger generation getting into the dairy industry. A farmers work is never done, no farm,no food. No body realizes how much work there is running a dairy.

    that is something I'd like to see...

    • @802Farmers
      @802Farmers  10 місяців тому +1

      No i didnt record any sadly. Mainly putting stalls back and welding holding brackets was the biggest thing. Feed bunk rails and adding headlocks. I did get the clip of of fixing the water leak. That took us a week to fully figure out. The last couple projects are getting recorded before cows come in though.

    • @802Farmers
      @802Farmers  10 місяців тому

      They haven’t milked in 3 years here. The old owner had to stop due to health reasons. Now they are moving states. That’s reasons for selling.

    If I was you I’d have robots on one farm and then milk in parlour on the other farm would be much easier to manage overall

    • @802Farmers
      @802Farmers  9 місяців тому

      We have a system that is working great. Robots are way to expensive to justify at the moment for us.
