DHI history

DHI history

Milk recording has a long history

Since 1895 recording and data management has been solid rocks behind our dairy industry. Strong decisions comes from strong data behind it. History has proven the concept of DHI. Farmers and employees in DHI has over 125 years developed the service and what is in it. 
No one was afraid of new tools. Most of this work added extra values to milk recording.
Today the service is the same as in 1895, but the tools are different. 
The goal is still to support the dairy industry in adding value to every single dairyfarm.

125 years celebration

In 2020 we celebrated 125 years of service. There was an exhibition at a rural museum, there was a reception and on the place where the founder of DHI, Niels Pedersen, and his first technician is buried, we had a ceremony in honor of those two gentlemen.
Our lab, Eurofins, sponsored three 5 minutes videos of the past, present and the future.

50 people related to milk recording today and in the past gathered late July to celebrate 125 years and to honor those brave men behind it.
