What are the key components of a modern cattle handling system?
A fully integrated, high-efficiency cattle handling system designed by Farming Solutions Ltd typically includes:
Forcing Tubs & Crowding Pens: To safely guide cattle toward the race.
Curved Races: Built to exploit natural livestock psychology and eliminate baulking points.
Cattle Crushes: High-performance manual or pneumatic options (such as Clipex HDX and HD Series models).
Weighing & EID Systems: Seamlessly integrated load bars, indicators, and stick readers for data-driven herd management.
Drafting Gates: For precise, fast sorting and separation.
Why invest in a professionally designed cattle handling yard?
Enhanced Animal Welfare: Low-stress handling patterns reduce bruising, panic, and fatigue for livestock.
Superior Operator Safety: Secure restraint mechanisms and clear protective access zones protect farmers and vets from injury.
Reduced Labour & Time: Smooth operational flow allows fewer people to manage larger herds efficiently during TB testing, vaccinations, or tagging.
