ONLINE — In this episode of the Uplevel Dairy Podcast, Peggy Coffeen sits down with Greg Kowalewski, manager of Aurora Oakwood Dairy in New York, to discuss how AI technology is transforming dairy management. They discuss the implementation of Nedap’s Smart Site technology for early lameness detection, which allows the farm to identify and treat cow lameness before it becomes severe, thus improving animal welfare and operational efficiency.
Greg shares his journey from growing up working on his uncle’s farm to becoming a manager and a proponent of cutting-edge technology. They also delve into how this AI system fits into the broader goals of the dairy and its co-op, Cayuga Milk Ingredients, which markets its milk globally. The conversation covers Greg’s management philosophy, the integration of technology into daily farm operations, and his vision for the future of dairy farming.
