About This Operation
2019 Agri Tech Services worked closely with the Geard family to build a new rotary dairy operation tailored to their current and future needs. Located in southern Tasmania, this new setup was designed to support the Geard family’s growing operation while ensuring the farm’s sustainability for future generations.
To achieve these goals, we recommended the state-of-the-art DeLaval E100 Rotary Milking System, one of the most advanced systems on the market. This system was the second unit to be sold in Australia, with the first installation in the southern part of the state. Known for its cutting-edge technology, the DeLaval E100 offers a seamless milking experience with key features like the DeLPro Herd Management System, which captures and reports critical data to help farmers manage their herd more efficiently.

The rotary platform is designed for cow safety and optimal cow flow, ensuring a smooth and efficient milking process for both cows and workers. Since its installation, the Geard family has experienced significant productivity improvements, which has allowed them to focus on growing their farm while maintaining the highest standards of animal welfare and milk quality.
At Agri Tech Services, we’re proud to have been part of this successful project and to continue supporting the Geard family with our ongoing service and maintenance solutions.
