The most milkings on a Lely Astronaut A4 in North America

Terra Nova Farms (Ponoka, AB) has a lot to brag about in the world of Automated Milking, but they definitely won't toot their own horn.

Their singular Lely Astronaut A4 Automated Milking Robot has an astounding count of well over 820,000 milkings on it, since it's installation and as of December 2023.

A Family Affair

Otto & Alice Nieuwland are the proud owners and operators of Terra Nova, opening the doors for the first time in 1995.

While the pair runs the farm on their own, they welcome assistance from their kids anytime they're willing to help.
