The BVS robot excels in efficient and thorough slurry suction, maintaining clean passageways and creating a healthier, more hygienic environment for the herd. By reducing contamination and improving shed cleanliness, the innovation system not only enhances animal welfare but also contributes to improved milking results, supporting higher milk quality and productivity.
Owen Jeremiah, our Dairy Sales Manager said “it’s brilliant to have been able to get the first BVS up and running in the country. The install went smoothly and the robot is performing really well. The install team working alongside Boumatic have done a tremendous job on what is a nationwide first and we have three engineers on the way to France this month for further training on the Robot. The new installation is on a farm just 5 miles from our Longtown branch and so is an ideal location for us to showcase the technology.”
This forward-thinking investment underscores Aspatria Farmers’ commitment to embracing cutting-edge technologies to enhance efficiency, sustainability and animal health. As farms face increasing environmental and regulatory pressures, solutions like the BVS Robot offer practical, automated approaches to waste management, reducing manual labour and ensuring consistently clean housing conditions.
