With the right strategy, grazing can be perfectly combined with automatic milking. The Lely Grazeway selection box is an essential tool for this. Cows choose for themselves whether and when they want to go out to pasture. The Grazeway then determines whether or not they can, using the Lely Qwes cow-recognition system.
The Grazeway offers outstanding user friendliness for you and stress-free selection for your cows. The selection box works with the same management system as the Lely Astronaut. In addition, the double-gate system is the same as the gate on the milking robot. You can also use the Grazeway for separating cows for treatment. You can programme this yourself through Lely Horizon on your mobile phone, while you are walking among the cows.
Through the link with the management platform Lely Horizon, you have total control over each individual cow’s grazing. The Horizon settings make the Grazeway an exceptionally flexible tool. By linking the selection box to your cows’ milk yield data, you can manage feeding and grazing much more efficiently.
Cows leave the barn through the renowned Lely Grazeway selection box or the Lely Astronaut milking robot, and are recognized and registered in the process. When they return the cows are accurately registered, entirely automatically, by the Grazeway R. The integrated loop antenna recognizes the cows’ movements from any position. Smooth throughflow, free of hindrance, guaranteed.
The information from the system enables further optimisation of grazing management. Farmers receive detailed information and insights into the grazing frequency and duration per cow. The system shows what times the cows are often outside and which plots of land they prefer. The Grazeway R also knows precisely where a cow is at any given time, which is handy for cows in treatment or in the case of separation.

The natural way to milk
An increased milk yield and overviews whenever and wherever you want them: automatic milking makes it all possible. The milking system collects data per cow on milk production and cow health. This alerts you on time to any changes, allowing you to devote your attention to the cows that need it most.
