Your questions before choosing a concentrate feeder.

How many stations do I need?

Station numbers depend on herd size, feed quantities, access time and cow traffic. The installation must allow each cow to receive her allocated ration.

What determines the budget?

The price depends on station numbers, feed types, existing identification and building adaptations. Share these details with AGYE for a project assessment and a quotation suited to your installation.

Is my existing identification compatible?
