Dairymaster will be at stand no. 93 in Block 2 on Row 4 showcasing the latest in dairy equipment and milking technology.
For the first time, Dairymaster has introduced artificial intelligence to rotary milking systems and their Mission Control  system– shortlisted for an award will be on display at the Enterprise Ireland Innovation Arena on stand no. 273
The equipment and solutions on display on stand no. 93 will include products from all categories including: Milking, Feeding, Cooling, Scrapers and Herd Health and Fertility Monitoring systems.

However the main focus for Dairymaster at the Ploughing is around milking systems both upgrades and new installations of Rotary parlours, Swing parlours and Fast Exit parlours.

This year has seen an increasing range of dairy equipment installed on Irish dairy herds.  In particular, Rapid Exit and Rotary Parlours have been very popular with milk producers as these parlours milk more cows in less time using less labour.

In Britain a published DairyCo report has revealed that choosing a rotary parlour as opposed to automatic milking systems (AMS) can save as much as 7.8c/Litre.

So, for an Irish dairy farm with a herd of 200 cows -average yield of 6,000L, this can make a difference of €93,600 in gross margin alone.

As herds are increasing in size, the need for efficiency in milking has grown even more important.

For farmers who want to go the automation route, Dairymaster’s intelligent technology boosts efficiency by controlling all functions from milking to feeding to drafting and seamlessly integrates with its MooMonitor+ health and fertility monitoring system.

Other new products on display include the CleanSweep Rope Scraper, Swiftflo Pivot Bailing, the energy saving VSaver system and Chlorine free detergents.

The CleanSweep Rope Scraper gives the dairy farmer fast and effective cleaning. It is easy to install, has variable running speeds, low running costs and is suitable for slatted or extra-long passages.

The Swiftflo pivot bailing is adjustable to suit all cow types with seamless cow exiting and the option of parallel. It is long life as it has heavy duty modular construction.

When milking is complete the bailing system lifts clear of the cows ensuring they have the optimum amount of space in order to make a rapid exit.

The Dairymaster VSaver rapidly optimises pump speed according to air demand for the parlour.

As a result motors use less current during normal operation. Typically there is 50-80% less energy consumption.

The Dairymaster team on the stand available to advise milk producers will include the CEO, Professor Edmond Harty, John Harty, Dr John Daly, Pat Ryan,
Niall O’ Hanlon and other dairy and product specialists. 

Bambrew are a small start up business based in Milltownpass, Co Westmeath.

The company was started by Siobháin & René in November 2018 as they felt they had to do something to stem the tide of all the plastics being used daily in Ireland, where the plastic more than likely ends up floating in the ocean, therefore harming marine life and also ending up in landfill. They decided to start a business providing more sustainable solutions/alternatives to single use plastics.

They began with reusable bamboo coffee cups and also glass coffee cups. They love their coffee but when they realised how many single use coffee cups they used weekly, they felt they must try and make a change no matter how small.

Did you know that 22,000 single use coffee cups are disposed of in Ireland EVERY HOUR, that is 528,000 every day& 200 MILLION every year. These cups cannot be disposed of in recycling bins.

You may think that your disposable cup is recyclable because it is made largely from paper, but this is not the case. There is a plastic coating which is fused to the paper making the cups waterproof but also difficult to recycle.

Even ‘compostable’ cups are rarely composted as they require very specific facilities and conditions and need to be commercially composted at a waste facility.

Siobhain & René’s main aim is to bring awareness to these issues & to encourage people to use a reusable cup instead of a single use cup.
Over the coming months, they extended their range of products to include stainless steel water bottles instead of plastic bottles, bamboo toothbrushes, stainless steel straws in a linen pouch, beautiful rainbow colours and silver & bamboo cutlery sets in pouches. All of these products can be taken with you everywhere saving you using plastic single use products.

A lot of the coffee shops are now giving a discount if you bring your reusable cup and if you are no longer buying water in plastic bottles then you will be saving yourself a fortune in no time whilst doing your bit for a greener planet.

Bambrew will be exhibiting their eco friendly products in The Hub : Dolmen – retail & Business Marquee – Block 3 Row 29 – Stand 646 – Unit No. 9, pop in and say hi, who knows you may find something to start you off of your zero waste free journey, so join them on the reuse revolution !

As they say ‘Small steps are better than none’ & ‘if you can’t reuse it, refuse it’
