VMS Open Day | 20th November 2025

Register here and join us on Martin Kelly's farm on the 20th of November 2024!

Martin Kelly is a Tom Harte Farm Services customer based in Kinsale, Co Cork. Martin decided to upgrade his milking system for his herd of 180 cows with THREE DeLaval VMS V300 robots on his farm.

I wish I did it sooner!

Register below for the open day and come see how it all works.

If you’re thinking of robotics for your own farm or just curious how they work on full grazing system, this is the event for you! See everything up-close and get the opportunity to talk to Martin about how it all works! 

Get a sneak peek into Kelly's farm!

We held a discussion group for other robotics farmers on his farm back in July 2025.

National Dairy Show 2025

The National Dairy Show is an important event for us at Tom Harte Farm Services. It’s a key event in the Irish Dairy sector and we have been a platinum sponsor for the past 30 years! 

Our stand was in the main arena area, giving us a great view of the show ring and all the activity for the show. We also had a smaller stand in the calf village. 

This show allowed customers to see the VMS, new calf feeder model and parlour options with their own eyes. We had some of our existing customers visit us at both stands as well as a few new enquires! 

Shows like this are always important for us to connect with the community and customers while also showing our products and services. 

Check out our video on the event below! We can’t wait for next year! See you there!

We had some interest in the new calf feeder model!

National Ploughing Championship 2025

We joined fellow dealers from all over Ireland and the UK for the National Ploughing Championship in Screggan, Co Offaly. DeLaval had a giant stand to fit us all in with the VMS, parlour and even rotary displays too! 

There was a constant flow of people through the stand for the few days and a lot of chatting in about robotics and other milking systems. Customers new and existing alike came in to see us and say hello. Its was a great time to see our fellow dealers and talk shop also! 

The DeLaval Stand

We also spent a few hours each day on the ALFCO stand, just around the corner from DeLaval. We partner with ALFCO to bring their high quality cow and parlour mats to our customers as well as their drafting gate.

Some customers came to say hello at this stand too and we got some great leads from our area. It was great to see the ALFCO staff too!
