Welcome to the third and final Talking Dairy summer yarn. In this bonus episode, we revisit the Contract Milking 101 episode with ag consultant Brendon Attrill and contract milker Rachael Foy. In this moment, they discuss why understanding cows, compliance, and pasture management is crucial before starting contract milking. They also discuss how to negotiate contracts and assess financial viability. If you're already contract milking or intending to go sometime soon, find out how the DairyNZ Contract Milking Premium Calculator and Dairy Training’s free short courses including the Contract Milking course can help set you up for success.
