A farmer says upgrading technology was a requirement to overcome labor challenges on her 250-cow dairy.
“It was either robots or quit farming.”
Janet Tolan owns and operates Risky Endeavor Dairy with her family in northern Michigan.
“We have a lot of industry so finding labor, keeping labor, and trying to stretch the family as far as we could to fill in the gaps, it was decided let’s go with robots,” she says.
