Well-designed cattle handling facilities based on animal behaviour principles are essential on every farm with cattle. They help to minimise stress on the animal and make cattle handling tasks easier and safer. The handling facility should fit in with your day-to-day activities seamlessly.
It is important to ask the question - are my cattle handling facilities well designed, well maintained and safe?
Animals should remain relaxed and calm as they flow to the handling unit from sheds, the yard or external fields. At least one smaller pen for sorting cattle adjoining the collecting area should be provided. Consider installing a barrier in the corner of square pens to avoid cattle bunching. Cattle should be funneled to the crush to reduce the likelihood of bunching at the entrance.
Take action to prevent injuries associated with livestock on your farm.
