The robotic Dookie dairy is a unique site just off the main campus where you can see cows being milked by an automated system. Come down and see the friendly Friesians Molly Dolly, Mrs. Brown, Baby Moo and more at the resilient dairy farming precinct.
What is the future of dairy farming? Learn more about our robotic dairy and hear from researchers and industry partners about the latest resilient dairy practices, data sharing and the benefits of the local dairy industry. You will be able to discover Murray Dairy activities and gain insight on career pathways.
BUTTER MAKING: Make sure you get everyone involved to produce your very own butter! Hot tip; it spreads beautifully on our Dookie bread which can be found in our Hungry Harvest precinct.
ROBOTIC DAIRY FARM TOURS: Discover how the Dookie robotic dairy farm operates, start to finish!
