Join Kristy Campbell of DeLaval in our latest webinar, Milk Quality Begins in the Back of the Barn. Successful improvements in milk quality take a systems approach.

Cow comfort, bedding management, ventilation, heat/cold stress and employee protocols all play a role in milk quality. The impacts of these factors are amplified in robotic facilities. Not approaching milk quality from a systems point of view leads to missed opportunities for improvement.
