Episode Details

In south-west Victoria, dairy farmers Darren Vickers and Simon Schulz are pioneering robotic milking systems for their herds, marking a significant shift in Australias dairy industry. The systems, which cost around $250,000 each, use lasers and brushes to milk cows, track milk volume and quality, and free up farmers time for pasture improvements and health checks. The move is driven by a severe shortage of skilled milkers and aims to boost profits and productivity, while also offering more family time and flexible schedules for farmers.
