Cattle Handling #7

Product Description

Features include beef finished on grass that can result in premium prices, desiccating feed oats to prevent weather damage, DNA profiling cattle to take advantage of the opportunity to select for valuable traits such as beef tenderness, a ranch built 2800 gallon winter watering system that refills quickly to prevent fighting, a labor saving truck mounted grain feeding system, and a manure composting operation that makes manure hauling more efficient by decreasing the volume by up to two thirds.  See a cattle handling system designed with safety in mind including keeping their heads still for easy access, a calving barn that keeps newborns out of the elements and allows the operators to assist when needed without the threat of injury from angry mother cows, a self propelled fencing machine on tracks that turns fencing into a one person operation, an outdoor calving method where cows that are in calf are sorted off and moved away from cow-calf pairs so that calving takes place on fresh ground without disease buildup, hydraulic sorting gates that allow the headgate operator to also choose which pens the cattle enter after they leave the headgate, and a feeding system where straw and chaff are collected together from the combine for field feeding in winter.
