I have visited a few dairy farms in the USA and seen their technology and how they manage their dairy farms. Unbelievable care is given to the animals with the minimum of labor and the yields are tremendous.
Unfortunately I am not aware of the dairy farm management procedures in India besides tying the livestock in an enclosure, feeding them grass and using milking equipment to milk the cows. I am wondering if such semi automated or automated dairy farms exist in India. Is it possible to replicate the USA or Israeli business model/milk production model in India and can anyone know the Return on Investment on such a model?
I am looking to set up a dairy farm of about 300 to 500 cows to begin with. I already have land near Hyderabad with water and an end client willing to buy milk besides contracting with a Heifer farm to get the livestock.
I am looking to invest in only INFRASTRUCTURE where a lot of the manual processes can be automated.
I need INFRASTRUCTURE consultants for my project and not ALL IN ONE Dairy Consultants. My requirements are below.
1.) Semi Automated/Automated Cow Dung Removal System.
2.) Milking Stalls (herringbone preferred)
3.) Milk Chillers powered by Solar Panels.
4.) Cow feed besides grass and hay and their availability.
5.) Approximate cost of infrastructure.
6.) Disease Management skills.
7.) Time for completion of infrastucture.
When replying this thread, please do tell WHERE you have implemented such projects and at what PRICE.
More importantly, please post some pictures or videos of your work and whether it will be feasible to visit such farms to gain an understanding of your expertise.
Let me repeat, I am ONLY looking for consultants with heavy experience and expertise in Dairy INFRASTRUCTURE projects and NEED to see their work. Please reply if you have such skills and I will contact you.
