Telehandler’s value on the rise
The practicalities of dairy farming centre around looking after animals well, and a whole bunch of logistics – largely lifting and loading.
The family-owned business says it understands that electricity is vital to farm operations.
Owner Damian Silvester says they are committed to providing practical solutions to keep businesses running smoothly.
“Our services go well beyond basic electrical work – we are here to solve the problems that can bring a farm to a halt,” he told Dairy News.
The company’s expertise includes setting up and maintaining advanced milking systems, ensuring that every component from the vacuum pump to the rotary platform operates at peak efficiency. This includes upgrading old systems to reduce electricity costs, resulting in reduced downtime, alongside improved milk quality and yield.
“We understand that every dairy farm is different, so we can tailor solutions to the specific needs of each operation.
“Whether it’s maintaining your existing set up or simplifying plant start-up processes for relief staff so you can get off the farm, or even adapting equipment for your farm’s layout, we bring a deep understanding of dairy farming to every situation. We also can integrate smart technology for remote monitoring and work with HALO Monitoring Systems to provide customised water and effluent management solutions.”
Silvester says downtime on a dairy farm can be costly, so they offer 24/7 service to address issues quickly, which in turn helps ensure milk production continues without interruption.
In the event of a power outage, the company uses its trailer-mounted CAT generator, “Jenny” to get things back on track.
The company also help farms reduce their energy costs through practical advice and solutions, from upgrading to LED lighting to exploring solar power options for more sustainability.
