Milk recording is a newish venture on our farm and now we wonder how we ever managed without it. The amount of individual cow data that is made available is “farm life” changing.
For us, milk recording day is an opportunity to catch up with our neighbour/milk recorder, Tim Sheehan and also it’s the anticipation of finding any high cell count cows or, even better, cows that have been cured since the previous recording.
