From the Uplevel Dairy Podcast
Do you ever wish you had a 24-hour herdsperson, who never showed up late, never complained and could pick up on a problem with a cow before you could?
Well, that’s what automation has done for Jessica Pralle Trimner, the dairy manager at Miltrim Farms in Athens, Wis., home to 30 Lely A5 milking robots and 1,800 cows under one roof, alongside a 1,400-cow conventional herringbone parlor and freestall facility at the same site.
I met up with Jessica at Miltrim’s event center, the Milkhaus, to talk about the suite of technology that allows her team to focus on the right data and the right cows, at the right time.
We talk about:
- Using real-time data to transform transition cow management
- Empowering employees with data-driven insights
- And the grouping strategy that has pushed the envelope on elite performance.
- Plus, we catch up with Jessica about her “one word” for 2024: Presence.
