Israel’s 900 dairy farms continually top the world milk production tables per cow. Average lactation from 120,000 milkers now tops 11,000 m and advisors reckon there’s still room for higher production per cow. What’s the secret?

Well, excellent cow and feed management obviously play a huge role in a sector that has quadrupled milk production since the beginning of the 1990s.
Efficiency. However long before then, in fact since 1919, an elaborate data transfer system from which detailed information about any single cow can be highlighted for analysis has been in operation, allowing continual improvement of practical herd management for increased efficiency . The special Israeli approach to dairy herd efficiency hasn’t only brought higher milk sales, it also produces quality management software now selling well worldwide. Helping continual improvement is the typical Israeli dairy farmer’s love of technology and innovation.
