Robert Fourdraine PhD
Bio
Robert brings more than 37 years of experience in the dairy industry, blending a PhD in Animal Science with leadership roles that span dairy information management, animal identification, milk recording and producer-focused innovation. He has served on the boards of the National Institute for Animal Agriculture (NIAA) and the Council on Dairy Cattle Breeding (CDCB), chairs an ICAR working group, and contributed to the development of the U.S. National Animal Identification System — all efforts that strengthen the future of the dairy industry.
At DRMS, Robert leads the teams responsible for product development and delivery. He ensures every tool and service is accurate, practical, and built with the producer in mind.
Passionate about advancing DRMS’s role as the leader in quality data and reporting, Robert values solutions that help dairy herds make better decisions. Outside of work, he enjoys growing vegetables in his garden — a hobby that reflects the same care and patience he brings to producers.
