Buildings Focus: Swapping a 10-unit parlour for a robot in Co Kilkenny

The first Buildings Focus of 2020 saw  AgriLand pay a visit to a tidy conversion job in Co. Kilkenny, where a 10-unit parlour was replaced with a robotic-milking machine. The farmer, John Murphy, from Callan, has been milking cows for over 30 years. He started off milking his cows through a 5-unit parlour and gradually, over time, expanded it to a 10-unit. As of now, John is milking a herd of 70 cows with calving about to take flight over the next week or so. Having only decided to pull out his 10-unit herringbone parlour in November and with construction only beginning last month, John was in a race against time to get the robot operational in time for calving.
