Sun North - Milking Parlour

With modern milking herds, cows are milked 2 to 4 times per day. The milking herd is moved into the holding area then into the milking parlour. These parlours are highly automated and able to milk 20 to 100 cows at one time. This is done with manpower and semi-automatic equipment or with robotic assist. Since the density of animals in both the holding area and then the parlour is so high it becomes paramount to have excellent ventilation.
