Dairy cows benefit from 16 hours of light and 8 Hours of Darkness

Did you know the right light regime in your barn is a science-backed tool to boost productivity and welfare?

• 7-8% more milk: Research shows that cows under this lighting schedule yield significantly more milk thanks to suppressed melatonin (the “sleep hormone”) and improved hormonal balance.
• Fertility & Health: You get improved fertility, shorter calving intervals, better heat (oestrus) detection, and reduced disease.
• Better Feed Intake: Healthier, more active cows eat more and convert that feed into extra milk.
• Animal Welfare: Proper darkness at night is protected, supporting the cows’ natural biological rhythms and deep rest.

The AGRILED® 3 series let you automate day/night cycles and even simulate sunrise and sunset for natural transitions. Integrated red night light allows checking cows without disturbing their rest or hormone balance.
