Keeping your herd healthy with Lely Horizon’s Health Treatment plans
Streamlined treatment protocols
Together with your veterinarian you can establish treatment protocols tailored to your farm’s situation. These protocols can be added in Horizon as a ‘treatment plan’, making it simpler to keep track of treatments and follow-up actions. They also remind you and the Astronaut of milk and meat withdrawal periods.
Insightful disease management
Horizon has an international disease database, a medicine library and a page dedicated to treatment plans. Based on all data related to health treatments, it provides you with valuable insights. By centralizing treatment plans within the software, Horizon supports consistency and informed decision-making across all farm workers and advisors. This centralized approach reduces miscommunication and promotes responsible use of treatments, contributing to overall herd health and wellbeing.
Efficient treatment execution
When a cow needs treatment, the farm management software helps you to register it quickly, set reminders for follow-up actions and sends the milk withdrawal period to the Astronaut directly. Pre-filled treatment plans simplify registration, ensuring precise documentation and compliance with withdrawal regulations. This is also helpful when multiple staff are working on the farm. Lely Horizon's automated withdrawal periods help prevent treated milk from entering the food chain, safeguarding both animal health and consumer safety.
Easy integration and reminders
Integrated seamlessly into daily farm operations, Horizon can provide timely reminders on scheduled treatments and vaccinations. From registering treatments to monitoring withdrawal periods, Lely Horizon streamlines every aspect of the treatment process. This integration allows for thorough analysis of treatment effects and herd health trends, empowering you to make informed, data-driven decisions for optimal herd management.

Why farmers choose the Lely Discovery Collector
When it comes to barn hygiene, every farmer can recognise themselves in at least one of the following challenges:
- Labour shortages and succession planning – Skilled labour is hard to find, and automation offers a sustainable solution.
- Maintenance headaches – Conventional systems require frequent rope changes and repairs, costing time and money.
- Deep bedding stress – Managing sand or other bedding materials adds complexity.
- Limited cleaning with traditional scrapers – Corners and tight spaces often remain dirty, impacting hygiene.
The Lely Discovery Collector is developed to address these problems. Designed for barns where traditional systems can struggle, it combines robust engineering, intelligent operation, and reliability to clean every corner, even the hard-to-reach areas, day and night. For farmers who strive for consistent hygiene, healthier cows, and less manual labour, the Discovery Collector is the smart choice.
The first solution for dense barn floors: the Lely Discovery Collector
Keeping your barn clean is essential for cow health, milk quality, and overall farm efficiency. But what if your barn has dense floors, sand bedding, or irregular layouts? Traditional scraping systems often struggle in these conditions. That’s why Lely developed the Discovery Collector, the first manure robot designed specifically for dense barn floors.
This innovative solution combines robust engineering, intelligent operation, and proven reliability to deliver consistent cleaning in even the most demanding environments. It’s not just a manure collector, it’s a smarter way to supporting barn hygiene and cow comfort, contributing to cleaner conditions in all areas of the barn.
Why reliability and adaptability matter in automatic manure cleaning
If you’re considering automatic manure cleaning, two questions usually come first: “Will it work in my barn?” and “Will it keep working?” The Lely Discovery Scraper is built to answer both. With proven technology, robust design, and exceptional fit across different barn layouts, it’s a safe, smart step towards cleaner floors, healthier cows, and a more efficient routine.
