Agriculture faces its biggest challenges ever: to feed the rapidly growing global population, anticipated to top nine billion by 2050; to produce food of better quality that meets increasingly stringent regulations; and to deliver this at competitive prices, despite escalating costs. In addition, all this needs to be achieved in a sustainable way. Luckily, the farming community is characterised by dedicated and innovative entrepreneurs, who are conscious of the fact that they will leave their business to future generations. Lely is no different. We continuously develop expertise and...

We support optimally efficient dairy farming. We foresee a future in which it is possible for just one man to produce two million litres of milk per year. Our continual investment in Research and Development (R&D) focuses on achieving this in an animal-friendly way. In response to growing demand from our customers for a solution to optimise feeding – the most time-consuming activity on dairy farms today – we have developed a unique new way to feed cows with the lowest labour input possible – the Lely Vector automatic feeding syste

sustainable dairy farming

Sustainability means ensuring that today’s activities do not compromise the ability of future generations to meet their needs. It plays an increasingly important role in dairy farming. Animal health and welfare and the efficient and ecologically conscious use of resources are fundamental aspects. Consumers demand animal‑friendly and environmentally sound production methods. Cows should enjoy a healthy and long life alongside increased lifetime milk production. The challenge for the dairy industry is to meet these demands in a profitable way. Careful feeding makes a key contribution to...

flexible fresh feeding The Lely Vector automatic feeding system was introduced in 2012 to provide a revolutionary new tool for the flexible fresh feeding of cows. It has proved an enormous global success and has brought round-theclock precision feeding with minimal labour input into mainstream farming. The system has been welcomed by farmers all over the ‘We are now milking four kilograms more milk, purely thanks to the improved way of feeding.’

BEYOND DAIRY FARMING The benefits of the Lely Vector extend beyond dairy farming. Flexible fresh feeding is also valuable in raising beef cattle. Multiple feeds have a big effect on the growth and development of all cattle. In this sector, where feed constitutes a substantial element in costs, it is very important to use all feed components and barn time efficiently. The Lely Vector makes this possible in an easy way.

Flexible feeding CALCULATED RATION Lactating cows have different nutritional requirements compared to dry cows, and dry cows vary in their needs depending on their stage of progression. Ideally, a specific ration should be calculated for each group.

The Lely Vector offers unprecedented flexibility. Any feeding strategy can be implemented, whether feeding is preferred several times a day, required in varying rations or differs for groups of cows. An effective feeding strategy will improve cow health and production. Quickly and easily adapted The feed kitchen of the Lely Vector system comprises an open space that can store any type of feed. Each feed type can be contained inside its own location within the kitchen. Separation of feed types is very easy to achieve and it is also easy to change the feed type and redefine its location. This...

Flexibility in your daily routine The Lely Vector not only saves labour, it reduces stress. Filling the kitchen and periodic cleaning are the only requirements. The system frees your time to manage your farm the way you want to. Freedom to plan work and spare time The Lely Vector’s feed kitchen can stock feed for three days ahead. This means work can be planned well in advance. Furthermore, since there is enough feed available in the kitchen for longer than a weekend, it can create new opportunities for your spare time. Independence from external labour Feeding cows is an important job. It...

Flexibility for every farm – now and in the There are many different types of barns, each with their own physical advantages and limitations. This used to make investing in an automatic feeding system a matter of compromise. The Lely Vector offers superior physical flexibility, it is easy to install and comes with negligible preconditions for operation. It works in virtually any farm layout and can be adapted if that layout changes – even if those changes are substantial. As an autonomous vehicle, the Lely Vector does not need The Lely Vector has been tested and validated in many extra...
