My son and his wife gave us tickets for the Packer game last weekend. Lambeau Field is always a great experience, and my wife and I had a great time, but it was clear that this is a rebuilding year for the Packers. In some positions, they don’t have the players they would like to have on the field. In other positions, they have the right people, but those people are still learning. The coaches have to develop a game plan that works with the players they have. Sometimes robotic milking puts us in a similar situation. This week one of my customer conversations was about managing the inefficient cows we have – while we work towards having the cows we want. The conversation came down to 3 questions: What is an inefficient cow? Closely related, how do you find the inefficient cows? And, after you find them, how do you manage them? How do you minimize the impact of the inefficient cows to make more milkings available to the best cows.
