Ozark Dairy Supply and Service becomes local Lely Center

Ozark Dairy Supply and Service, Joplin, Missouri, has been designated a local Lely Center, bringing Lely’s dairy automation technology, expertise and ongoing service and support closer to dairy producers across Missouri, Arkansas, Kansas and Oklahoma.

With more than 30 years of combined dairy service and supply experience, the Ozark Dairy Supply and Service team is focused on helping producers explore how automation can fit their operations and long-term goals.

“As a local Lely Center, we’re here to provide more than equipment,” said Karen Bruce with Ozark Dairy Supply and Service. “We’re here to be a trusted partner before, during and after installation, with the service and support producers need throughout the life of their system. Every dairy is different, and our goal is to understand each producer’s operation before recommending a solution.”

Bringing dairy automation closer to producers

Lely develops dairy automation technology designed around cows and the way they naturally behave. Lely solutions can help producers automate repetitive tasks, improve consistency, support cow comfort and health and gain greater insight into individual cows and overall herd performance.

As a Lely Center, Ozark Dairy Supply and Service will help producers learn more about Lely’s portfolio of dairy automation solutions, including:

  • Robotic milking

The Lely Astronaut robotic milking system allows cows to voluntarily visit the robot when they are ready to be milked. The system automatically identifies each cow, performs the milking process and collects data to help producers manage individual cows and the herd.

  • Automated feeding

Lely automated feeding solutions, including the Lely Vector automatic feeding system, prepare and deliver fresh feed throughout the day. The Lely Juno automatic feed pusher helps keep fresh feed within reach, encouraging cows to visit the feed bunk more frequently.

  • Manure management and data

The Lely Discovery Collector mobile barn cleaner and other Lely technologies help automate daily tasks while providing producers with additional information to support herd and farm management decisions.

A local partner

For Ozark Dairy Supply and Service, becoming a Lely Center is about more than bringing automation technology to the region. It also provides producers with a local resource they can rely on.

“Automation is a significant investment, and producers deserve a partner who understands that,” Bruce said. “We’re committed to building relationships with producers and providing the expertise, service and support they can count on.”
