What you need to pay attention to when building a new cattle stable
The planning of a stable already determines whether the climate parameters will move in a positive direction. In the podcast, Ing. Eduard Zentner gives valuable tips on what is important when planning and building a stable, especially for cattle.
When selecting the location, attention should be paid to good ventilation if possible. The design of the roof construction alone can be responsible for a doubling of heat stress hours in summer and for massive losses in animal welfare and performance. In practice, large light ridges can be observed, which can additionally warm up the animal area underneath with solar energy. The design of the side walls, the position and design of the lying areas are also important. Of course, well-built fans can also be helpful.
