About this Open Day

See robotic milking in action and meet the team behind Lely Center Longtown  

Join us at the Eastwood Farm, where you will see not only the astronaut in action, but see how with the combination of the Lely Juno and Collector has enhanced herd wellbeing and performance. 


The robotics journey at Eastwood Farm started 2018 with the introduction of the Lely Juno. When debating how to progress the herd just over 12 months ago, the Singleton family debated the installation of a new parlour, however the idea of milking three times a day with additional seemed nonviable. Therefore the installation of four Lely Astronaut's seemed like a new brainer. 


12 months on, cow numbers have increased from 190 to 225, with a 12% uplift in yield and with a high heifer percentage in the herd, they hope this uplift in yield will continue to rise. The introduction of the Lely Astronaut along with the Juno and Collector, have allowed for more flexibility as well as securing the farm future.
This is your chance to see how robotic milking can work seamlessly, while still giving flexibility to adapt and grow. From cleaner floors to calm, consistent milking routines, Eastwood Farm shows what is possible when the right technology is in place.

The Lely Center Longtown team will be on hand to talk you through the system, explain the benefits of the use of robotics on farm, and answer your questions. Whether you are already considering automation or simply curious about how automation could work for you, this is a farm visit not to miss.
