Dairy automation specialist Lely has developed a version of its Discovery robot to remove manure from solid floors, unlike the original which could only push muck through floor slats.
Large numbers turned out to a recent 'show and tell' at a Lely robotic-milking farm near Morrinsville, owned by the Cameron family.
Lely at Agritechnica 2015, in Hanover, introduced a new range of variable chamber round balers which are now available in New Zealand.
Lely says its new Hibiscus 1515 CD four rotor rake is designed for demanding operations, available in working widths of 11-14.8m and swath widths from 1.2-3.5m.
Lely's new continuous baling system will allow operators to just keep going when baling any type of crop – no need to stop or slow down

LELY HAS launched a new automated feeding system. The Lely Vector is the next major step in automating working methods within dairy farming and as such, it matches the impact of the milking robot, the company says.
