Abstract:
Automatic Milking Systems (AMS) represent a steady technology in dairy cows with more than 8500
milking units (MU) installed worldwide, especially in North Western Europe where are located about
80% of the automatic milking farms. Main advantages of AMS in cows are better labor organization,
improved animal behavior and increased milk yields (Hogeveen, H., 2001). In dairy buffaloes AMS are
a worldwide absolute novelty and the first milking robots (4) were installed in a farm located in South
Italy (Campania) since May 2008. Aim of the present survey was to evaluate the milking capacity of
AMS in dairy buffaloes.
