Testimonials

We’ve worked with Advanced Ruminant Nutrition (ARN) and their robot team for nearly two years, and their fresh, data-driven approach has delivered major improvements in herd health, profitability, and on-farm efficiency. Working with ARN offers us the access to and backup from a wide network of other very experienced professionals and experts from other nutritionists to foot trimmers and vets, to work through any issues or design and implement protocols that works for our herd.  

Leanne Bertram - Mains of Boquhan, Graham's Family Dairy

"We wanted to improve our overall cow health and mobility, so we worked together with Advanced Nutrition. Their Advanced Mobility program helped to give us a true understanding of the lameness and mobility issues we had within the herd. Each month the team mobility scored the herd which meant they could also identify any cows that the foot trimmer needed to focus on before they got lame. This, along with the overall experience of the program meant that we have easily identified issues that we can now prevent and manage to improve mobility and reduce overall herd lameness."

"Milk yield increased significantly from 29 to 35 kilograms, but milk solids have also been sustained at 4.6% butterfat and 3.4% protein, with total milk solids at 2.73 kilograms sold."

Richard Baker, Close Turf Farm

Before working with Liz we were introducing the calves to a milking cow diet when they were weaned. Liz changed this to a straw and cake diet and we’ve seen great results. DLWG is good, we are gaining an additional 0.15kg and they are growing into a good frame rather than being pot-bellied.

Jim Booth - Raygill Moss Farm

We’ve been happy to have Advanced Robot join our team, we are really starting to see the benefits of their experience. We’ve achieved the target of 2.8 visit average whilst grazing with the ABC system.

Ben Mason, Merrivale Farm

Previous to Richard working with us we were struggling to get above 30/31 litres. Richard came in looked at the robot settings, the cow’s environment and nutrition. We saw an immediate response and an uplift in milk. We went from 31- 36 litres in very little time and it was down to Richard getting the diet right. 

Mr Booth - Raygill Moss Farm

Advanced Robot’s experience means they are always challenging me to get the best out of the cows, they maintain the herd’s health status whilst also improving performance.

Gregor Colquhoun, Dendoldrun Farm

Advanced Robot have helped us transition onto the automated milking system with impressive results. The team has a clear understanding of how the whole system needs to work, from the cow and her health right through to the robot settings. The cows are healthy and performance is terrific.

Robert & Craig Sloan - Shawsmuir, Dumfries & Galloway

After Advanced Nutrition's advice and using DC X-Zel for our transition cows we have found they are fitter and healthier. They don’t lose much condition after they calve, right through to lactation. They just calve down better.

Neil & David Kidd - Booth Hall, Lancaster

We’ve worked with Advanced Ruminant Nutrition for over two years, and they’ve been instrumental in helping us meet our goals since transitioning to robotic milking. Their whole-farm, whole-team approach supports our focus on maximising home-grown cereals and milk from forage to achieve our target MOPF. With access to expertise across the business and a proactive focus on performance, ARN continues to identify new opportunities to drive progress on our farm.
