The Lely Juno Feed Pusher is a dairy robot by Lely, priced at $15K-$25K. It is commercially available and deployed on farms worldwide. It delivers up to 40% labor cost reduction.
Lely Juno Feed Pusher
The Lely Juno is an autonomous feed-pushing robot that continuously keeps fresh feed within reach of dairy cows, stimulating feed intake and boosting milk production. Operating on a programmed schedule throughout the day and night, it navigates the feed alley using route memory and obstacle detection sensors to push scattered feed back toward the feeding fence. The battery-powered unit runs for 8-12 hours per charge and weighs 340 kg, with a push width of 1.8 meters suited for standard dairy barn layouts. Studies have shown that more frequent feed pushing increases dry matter intake by 3-5%, which translates directly to higher milk yields and healthier cows. The Juno is one of the simplest and most cost-effective dairy automation investments, typically paying for itself within 18 months through labor savings and production gains.
