      Yeah I remember it cost my dad 500,000 in the 80’s to build. Who knows what the cost today would be.

        And a farmer in the US would probably have to import it from more innovative countries which had to invent those machines because they had no slaves to exploit.

        145 000 to 175 000 € but thats for a small one with 1 milkingstall, or rather tiny if we compare american farms and austria xD (most farms with a milkingrobit have about 40-80 cows)

                Two and a half cows doesn’t sound like that much.

                But what do you need millicow precision for?
