More than forty thousand people visited the participating dairy farms. The Open Farm Days were centred around the 20th anniversary celebrations of automated milking. In 1992, Lely launched a trailblazing novelty in the dairy farming business: the Lely Astronaut milking robot. Since then, more than 15,000 Lely Astronaut milking robots have been sold. During the Open Farm Days, dairy farmers in many countries opened their doors to share their long-standing appreciation of the Lely Astronaut milking robot with potential users. ‘A blessing for many cows and a high milk production as our reward’ and ‘the best investment in years’ were among the quotes noted at the event. Many dairy farmers not only highlighted their milking robots; they also took the opportunity to recommend other Lely products such as the Lely Juno automated feed pusher, the Lely Discovery mobile barn cleaner and the Lely Vector automated feeding system. In cooperation with Lely dealers, forage harvesting machines were also on display at this event. Many customers played an active part throughout the preparations for the event, helping Lely to enable a unique celebration of this milestone.
