The A5, the latest milestone in milking is introducing major improvements to farmers’ herd performance and efficiency. Our customers recognise that automation is the future. However good their stockmanship, they tell us their A5’s provide consistency and reliability, as well as solving labour issues and improving the health and welfare of every cow in the herd. Add together these benefits, along with increased yield, and return on investment soon becomes apparent.

We have introduced the revolutionary manure robot for solid floors, the Lely Discovery 120 Collector vacuum keeps on working round the clock, whilst for slatted sheds, the Discovery 90SW automated slurry scraper guarantees the job is done every time. Both robots literally transform a shed’s environment, cleaner cows contribute to cleaner milk and cleaner beds. There is also time, labour and equipment cost savings to be made.

“The best decision we’ve ever made,” says Adam Chippendale who milks his 220 cow Wharton Hall pedigree Holstein herd based at Kirkby Stephen through four Lely robotic milking systems.

Meanwhile, farmers who have invested in a Lely Juno feed pusher say increasing feed intakes has never been easier and it is one of the most indispensable pieces of kit on the farm, working round the clock, increasing DM intakes, contributing to increased milk yield, as well as saving labour and minimising wastage.

Our level of service continues beyond installation. Our team features 13 dedicated technicians located throughout our area providing that essential local support and 24/7 back up for existing customers, whilst for newcomers, our sales support, farm management service and barn design teams combine to help ensure a smooth transition from concept to reality.
