Tom Turner explores how real-time data helps farmers track cow health, milk production and feeding needs.


Why have thousands of South African dairy farmers left the industry, and what does it take to remain competitive in modern dairy farming? In this episode, commercial dairy farmer Tom Turner shares his insights into the economics, technology, and challenges shaping South Africa’s dairy industry. Managing a herd of more than 1,400 cows, Tom explains how precision farming, individualised feeding systems, satellite pasture tracking, and genomic testing help improve herd performance and farm efficiency. The conversation explores the decline in dairy farmer numbers, the influence of retailers and processors on milk prices, rising production costs, and the impact of international competition. Tom also discusses agricultural machinery, artificial intelligence, livestock genetics, and the role large dairy farms play in creating jobs and supporting local economies. An insightful conversation about the business behind milk production, the technology transforming agriculture, and what the future holds for South African dairy farmers.
