S.C. Wisconsin | My labor to milk my 510 cow dairy herd is around $110,000 a year, these guys also rake and clean the stalls and freestalls 3 times a day. According to whats posted here we would need 7 robots at $250.000 per robot that would be $1,750,000. The interest at 6% would be $105,000 then you have the maintain the robots or have labor to manage them. Any machine that works 24/7 is going to have to be maintained. In our case we would have to do a lot of remodeling to make them work. Now a Rotory parlor with robots might work better for us, but it's gotta cash flow. | |
