Lighting plan
Lely L4C includes an advanced, custom-made lighting plan
Thanks to the facility of a custom-made lighting plan, L4C makes it possible to define the optimum number of lamp units prior to the installation plus there are various options to meet all individual needs of the dairy farmer.
For many years, research has been conducted into the actual influence of light on the wellbeing of cows and their milk production. An important part of this research focused on lighting of barns. It became perfectly clear that modern barns are much more open and that lighting facilities have been dramatically increased. A good example of this evolution is the greenhouse barn, a type of cow barn that has been increasingly built over the past few years. On the other hand, many modern barns which can still be used for many years to come often are very dark and badly lit. Even for progressive dairy farmers, lighting alone is not sufficient reason to invest in a new barn.
Now, with its L4C – Light for Cows – package, Lely offers a highly affordable option to ensure cows can benefit from the lighting conditions that are standard for most of today’s state-of-the-art barns. And there is more to this excellent option: L4C is a controlled barn lighting system, which also provides the facility of an advanced and custom-made lighting plan.
