Because a cow spends four hours a day at the feed fence
With the Cowhouse Feedstall every cow has her confined space at the feed fence, so that there is less competition and jostling is prevented. By covering the raised platform with our Dairy Floor the cows have a natural and dry place to eat. This is beneficial for hoof health and on top of that the cows are not being bothered by the slurry scraper.
By using the Feedstall the number of repudiations declines considerably. The cows also eat 25 minutes longer. The number of cows, which are not eating, but which are present at the feed, declines as well. Consequently the manure alley behind the Feedstall is less occupied, so that it can be less wide.
