FutureCow Teat Prep System

[@andrewmoore3491]

@10th Generation Dairyman I have been watching you for a few years now. I love how you and your dad continually, intelligently upgrade your farm. Cow comfort and cleanliness is paramount for you guys and I love that. You respect the cow and understand it’s worth. You guys are an example of how many dairy farms around the world should be.

[@CMDSR]

Farms are some of the best labs known. If there’s a way to be more productive and reduce cost a farmer will figure it out. Hope the new set up does just that for you guys.

[@beckyumphrey2626]

Your dairy farm is immaculately maintained. Love this channel.

[@PaulTighe-e2n]

Nice machines, great idea for cleaning the teats also your milking parlor is so clean great job, great farm 🚜

[@laurie9142]

With out doubt you would have to be the hardest working KZbin farmer. Great work 🇦🇺

[@dougdiplacido2406]

That new system seems pretty efficient and hopefully will save you a lot of expense. Great video and thanks till next time. Wondering how the solar system is working out.

[@JHruby]

Nice system. Should be a good addition to the dairy. These days you really have to consider everything to reduce labor.

[@rnewell3265]

Your farm is so clean and beautiful 🍁🍁🇺🇸

[@lidsman2221]

Looks like a great system and I hope it keeps working for you and the cows. Looking forward to the next video soon! Thanks!

[@thereissomecoolstuff]

This is one of my top 5 channels. The amount of paper towels discarded everyday is staggering. I know you were regretting not buying it 5 years ago when it was 30% of the price it is today. Rock on Dairy family. Do you ever take a family vacation with mom and dad and all the kids. I hope you do. That would be a fun video as well.

[@Kaboom-9]

We use paper towels, and they all get spread in the field with bedded pack manure and break down into the soil. That is the way everyone I have heard of gets rid of paper towels.

1:45 one thing I might suggest for your RO system is maybe a sediment prefilter and a UV light before the RO. Unless you know your well is Bacteria free than it doesn't matter. But bacteria build up can clog the RO membrane filter quickly

I used a similar system before we finished milking in a parlour. Ours was a pistol grip style which although quite weighty put less strain on your wrist. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@Justangs]

Looking like a good addition with consistency and cleanliness when used correctly! Ever look into stray voltage with your herd dancing around more than other herds in the parlor during prep? And struggles with SCC to keep it low, you mentioned at times.

[@jwiereng]

How do you quantify the amount of dancing around?

Sounds like this was a real easy call to get the FutureCow system. Your cows doesn't seem to have any big issue with the brushing, hopefully you have great success with this system, seems to be good. Good luck with all of the system, thanks for sharing, have a great rest of week!

Great Job. Be happy & Keep Smiling .❤❤❤

[@diamondjim7560]

Apparently the new teat cleaner is tickling the cows when it is used. The way they move their leg reminds me of the way they do that when horse flies bother them or if the teats became overly sensitive from tall pasture grass. We didn’t have more than four milk cows on our farm growing up. We had a lot of beef steers mostly, but used the milk and sold the cream to close customers.

[@daveklein2826]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@rubenbonthuis634]

We have also have the futurecow in our parlour, they hang on a steel cable with a pulley to take out the weight, doesn’t matter which milker, the teeth are always very clean

Eric why do you milk three times a day? Seems like other dairy farms I’ve watched only do it twice a day. Love your videos. Thanks for taking the time to teach us non farmers. 🙏👏👍🇺🇸

[@calebmanuel17]

It really depends on cows how much they produced and more milk that’s why farmers are milking 3 times per day.

An adaptation of the robotic milking System., brilliant. One of the reasons cows are a little fidgety is the start of oxytocin in the letdown process tingles a bit. Ask your wife about it if she breastfed your children.

New bit of tech, FutureCow is a cool name, right? The second gen will have a lighter hand wand I’m sure. Good luck with it all.

[@derekwpennington1796]

Is 3 times more profitable with labor cost and cleaning cost compared to twice a day?

[@jwiereng]

Usually get more milk per day if milked 3 times a day.

[@r.scotthill3082]

How many cows per milking require some addition hand scrubbing?

Way to go !

[@derekwpennington1796]

Curious because most i follow only milk twice a day

[@JackieDannenberg]

Didn’t you have milkers on both sides of the parlor before ? How does this new system work as far as time is concerned ? Does it take more time ? I would think it would. Are you going to install milkers on the other side in the future ?

[@stevenatkinson2393]

Is the light on the new prep washer a UV light that might help with killing bacteria

[@kensampson604]

Keep extra parts to repair or replace the washer head.

[@kensampson604]

Really

[@neosmith80]

With this new system, are they still getting post-dip or they don't need it now?

[@kirb743]

Is there a cost or production benefit to milking three times a day versus two times a day? I would think it costs more in labor. I wonder how many times cows will self milk themselves at the automated parlors

[@10thgenerationdairyman61]

I should do a video on it sometime. It definitely pays to milk 3x if you have the help. Robot milkers average 2.5 to 3 milkings per day from what I hear.

[@OOpSjm]

If you have a high-producing herd then you milk often.

[@shawnelliott8323]

Looks like the cows don’t care for it much

[@jeffw8057]

Hmm...seems like the body of this new device comes into contact with adjacent teets at various stages of cleaning and potentially could transfer contamination from one cow to another? Otherwise, this seems like it speeds the process considerably!

[@OOpSjm]

A device covered in chloride is going to transfer?

I wonder if the cows are jumpier when they can’t see you because we milk in a station and the cows aren’t bad at all

Nice to see a progressive dairyman. Have seen dairy farm KZbinrs putting the machine on the cow with manure still on the teat. Average person sees that and its a wonder anyone is drinking milk.

[@jwiereng]

Some milkers have cleaning in the cup. For example GEA’s proven In-Liner Everything™ technology performs every step of the milking process - stimulation, teat cleaning, forestripping, milk harvest and post‑dipping - in a single attachment. This uniform, quick and comfortable process, all occurring within the teat cup, is key to harvesting excellent quality milk while maximizing the efficiency

[@johnd4018]

Wow, If it works, thats some pretty amazing technology. As a former dairy farmer from 30 plus years ago, I still prefer the old way (when done properly).

[@farmerrob385]

Only problem i see with that system is when cows have mastitis it will live in the brushes no matter how much you clean the brushes it will always be there an if you use on a cow that has that infection an then a cow that doesn’t then that cow becomes infected as well don’t get me wrong its a nice system but i can see you guys not keeping it forever

The chlorine dioxide will kill the pathogens.

Hopefully the disinfectant does a good job of disinfecting the machine, so it does not spread from one cow to the next

@@jwiereng wont matter how much clean or change the brushes once it spreads it will be hard to detect unless eric or his dad are there in the parlor stripping the teets out i know on the farm i work on i can spot the start of the mastitis when im prepping cause i look at the towel after i wipe each cow before i move to the next one an so on an see white stuff that is a bit thicker then milk
