Hendrik-Jan installed the ADF automated post-milking hygiene system on his 60 point external rotary parlor in February 2013. He has 2,200 cows in his herd and is milking them 3 times a day on his farm Dittmannsdorfer Milch GmbH in Saxony, Germany.

“We are absolutely satisfied with the ADF System and so are our cows! Since ADF was installed we have already used it for 8 million milkings. The system is absolutely reliable. We can now work with one person less in our parlor and all cows are still dipped 100% which had previously not always been the case.”

“We now have much healthier udders and our cows live longer. The cows have lower somatic cell count which has led to fewer cases of mastitis and less antibiotic usage which has saved us money as well. If you are thinking about installing ADF, I would definitely say: “Do it! I wish I had done it sooner!”
