A method of automatically milking and feeding animals, as well as an implement and a feeding stall suitable for same

摘要

In a method of automatically feeding and milking animals which are allowed to visit individually a milking parlour provided with a milking robot and a feeding station as well as a separate feeding stall provided with a further feeding station, an animal visiting the milking parlour is identified and the current value of an individual milking parameter for the animal is determined, on the basis of which current value there is decided whether or not the animal will be milked and fed during milking. When visiting the separate feeding stall, an animal is identified and the current value of the individual milking parameter for the animal is determined as well, while, on the basis of said current value there is decided whether or not the animal will be fed. In this manner it is achieved that the animals, whilst visiting the milking robot sufficiently often, are also enabled to eat enough feed/concentrate.
