Reducing your workload on dairy farms this spring

Conor Hogan, Research Officer with Teagasc Moorepark, whose work has focused on labour efficiency and work organisation on dairy farms, and Martina Gormley, Teagasc Dairy Specialist, who works closely with farmers on practical ways to reduce workload, join James Dunne on this week’s Dairy Edge.

With spring calving commenced on the majority of dairy farms, it places an increased demand on farm workload. In this episode, James, Conor and Martina discuss what the research tells us about managing workload, what practical changes farmers can make to reduce pressure, and how small system adjustments can make a big difference to both efficiency and quality of life.
