Flexibility in feeding routine

Feeding your cows with the Lely Vector automatic feeding system offers you optimum flexibility. You can implement your feeding strategy without any compromises, whether you want to feed your cows several times a day, different rations and in different groups. You will be rewarded with better cow health and increased production.

Quick and easy feed type changes

The feed kitchen of the Lely Vector system is an open space without obstacles and it can store all types of feed. Every feed type has its own location which is very easy to define. This offers enormous flexibility because it is quite easy to change the feed type and redefine the location. Therefore, adjusting the mixed ration to changes of concentrate will be very easy. When changing concentrates at group level, or when engaging another supplier, you can adjust this precisely on a day and hour basis in the ration at the feed fence.

Changing rations in no time

With the Lely Vector system you can feed every group their own ration. You can easily change the ration: composition as well as quantity. The software can determine the amount of feed leftovers. Whenever the amount of feed leftovers drops below a threshold value the system is able to start to feed this group. Automatic feeding is also ideal in combination with grazing. During rainy periods or just on hot and sunny days, the grazing cows will go inside where they can be offered an extra portion.

More precise feeding

With the feed grabber filling system you can grab a lot of feed types. To obtain the right quantity you can adjust the bite size, height and closing of the grabber, so you can feed more precisely. In addition, the system will also correct the feeding quantity through time. If you have fed too much of a specific feed in one run, then it will correct itself in the next runs. Thus, the cows in the group are fed exactly what they need.

Flexibility in changing groups

The software of the Lely Vector system is set up in such a way that only the basic information about the ration is necessary. In this way you can move cows to another group, put the heifers in the group or set up a completely new group without any hassle. The system will automatically see when the threshold value for the feed leftovers is met and will start feeding earlier.
