The choice of the right
water troughs
must be given high priority in professional pasture management.
A sufficient supply of water is essential for the health of the animals on the pasture. Especially on hot summer days, it has a decisive influence on animal welfare. Lactating cows, for example, need up to 150 litres of water or more in very hot weather. The animals must be able to consume sufficient water unhindered and stress-free so as not to jeopardise their performance and well-being.
