The Lely Hydro (1970) was a hydraulically driven tractor. This technique allowed the vehicle to vary speed stepless, even at low speed. All modern tractors have stepless semi-hydraulic gearing so in a way the concept was ahead of its time. #75yearsredimpact #lely #farminginnovators

World Milk Day! This year, the focus lies on showcasing how dairy reduces its environmental footprint, while also providing nutritious foods and livelihoods. We could not agree more. Next week, in celebration of our 75th anniversary, we will launch our new farm of the future. In line with the focus of this year's World Milk Day by the United Nations, some highlights will be the environmental and societal impacts of our sector. We can't wait! #worldmilkday #75yearsredimpact #lely #farminginnovators #farmofthefuture

In 1968, Lely Roterra saw daylight. A power harrow with rotating tines for creating a seedbed after ploughing. Several sets of two tines rotated, individually, around a vertical axis resulting in a much finer tillage compared to traditional drawn harrows with fixed tines.

What does 75 years red impact mean to you? ‘For 75 years now, Lely has been playing a founding role in the robotisation of dairy farming. The major change this has brought about has enabled dairy farmers worldwide to work in a more efficient, enjoyable, sustainable and profitable way.’ Lely, The Netherlands #75yearsredimpact #takeover #lely #farminginnovators

Dutch cities slowly turn orange whilst excitement grows for the annual Kings' Day. Although our company continues to expand to more and more countries, we will forever be connected with the Dutch. Next week, we will go back to our roots and explore our history in The Netherlands. Now servicing a total of 6,303 robots, we are sure that our colleagues have some royal stories to share with us. #lely #farminginnovators #takeover #75yearsredimpact #oranjekoorts

What does 75 years red impact mean to you? ‘75 years is a huge success; it means we are a strong company and that we really help farmers improve the way they work and live. I love the Lely values and the fact that we are a family business; it is something I feel every day at work. I've been part of the Lely family myself since I was young; my mother worked for Lely Italy for 42 years. When she retired, I did not hesitate to apply and here I am today as Business Support Manager with Lely Italy. Very proud to be part of the company!’ Laura Greco, Business Support Manager Lely Italy #75yearsredimpact #lely #farminginnovators

Launched in 1967, the Lotus tedder was known for its durability and tedding result. The unique hook tines could pick up grass and hay using more of a drag movement. The rotors threw it backwards and a swather basket could gather the thrown material in a swath avoiding unnecessary losses. #75yearsredimpact #groundbreaking #farminginnovators #lely

1957 marks the launch of our fertiliser spreader. The rotating disk with curved vanes for spreading fertiliser directly below the container resulted in a wide working width. The unique design has not been changed since then and the principle of rotating disks is still used in all modern fertiliser spreaders. #75yearsredimpact #groundbreaking #farminginnovators #lely
