Five stops. Roughly 4,000km travelled. Hundreds of farmers, rural professionals and industry partners through the doors of working composting barns.
That’s a wrap on Inside the Barn: The Aztech Composting Barn Roadshow.
Over the past few weeks, our team and partners have travelled from Waikato to Taranaki, Dannevirke, Culverden and Invercargill, bringing farmers together on farm to see composting barns in action and hear directly from the people running them.
The questions we heard were exactly the questions farmers should be asking.
Cost. Bedding. Tilling. Maintenance. Cow comfort. Wintering. Feeding. Production. Environmental considerations. Long-term farm planning. How it works day to day. What farmers would do again. What they would do differently.
A huge thank you to our host farmers for opening their farms and sharing their stories so generously.
Thank you to everyone who came along, asked questions, compared notes and helped make this roadshow such a valuable few weeks for the dairy sector.
We’ll be sharing more from the roadshow over the coming weeks, including farmer stories, key learnings, common questions and practical insights from inside the barns.
For now, Thank you to everyone who was part of it.
Real barns. Real farmers. Real answers.

A few moments from Dannevirke at Waka Dairies as we head into the final week of the Aztech Buildings Composting Barn Roadshow.
Over the past few weeks, we’ve travelled the country opening the doors to working composting barns and bringing farmers together to see, ask questions and hear directly from those already operating them.
The response has been incredible, with plenty of practical conversations around barn design, management, animal performance and what farmers have learnt along the way.
Now, there’s just one stop left.
📍 Invercargill
📅 Wednesday 30 September
We’re looking forward to finishing the roadshow in Southland and having one final day of honest, on-farm conversations.
Five stops down. One to go.
See you Wednesday, Southland.
We’ve reached that time of year where calving is finished and things are at a much quieter pace of life - for the girls at least! These days they enjoy a leisurely morning, after milking, in their palace before they stroll out to the paddock 🏠🐄🌸🌱

One farm visit. Decision made. ✅
When you’re investing in your farm’s future, there’s real value in knowing it’s done right the first time.
After seeing another Aztech Feedpad Cover set-up these clients knew what they wanted for their own farm.

Fresh woodchip going in. Cows making themselves at home. 🐄👌

Has having a barn reduced the workload?
For Waka Dairies the biggest change has been having more control over when the work gets done.
There are labour savings compared with what they would otherwise be doing, but just as importantly, jobs can be moved around to suit the day.
The shelter can be ripped during morning milking or while the cows are out in the paddock, allowing the team to work around what needs doing rather than feeling pressured to get everything done at once.
“It’s not pressured, it’s not rushed. It’s there for us to do when the time suits.”
Sometimes efficiency isn’t about doing less. It’s about having more control over how and when the work gets done.
