CCE DAIRY EDUCATORS

For almost 30 years, Keith Keberle has been the farm manager at Oakfield Corners Dairy in Oakfield, NY, where they milk 2800 cows in a 72-stall GEA DairyProQ robotic rotary parlor. In this episode of Cornell Cow Convos, Regional Dairy Specialist Margaret Quaassdorff of the CCE NWNY Dairy, Livestock & Field Crops Team, and Cornell PRO-DAIRY's Dairy Animal Welfare Specialist, Lindsay Ferlito, interview Keith Keberle about his experience transitioning to a robotic rotary, and his insights in managing employees and cows in a higher tech system. We also discuss dairy data and the mindset involved in keeping the wheel turning.
