3 Module – Score the last four points
To get the full 10 points, the barn layout must also meet strict criteria for calf housing, bedding, cow traffic and clean routes. Finally, the points are added together. How many points did your layout score? Is it a good basis for starting the investment or is there a point that needs further thinking?
Trainers
Reading dairy barn layouts is difficult!
I've been designing barns since I was a teenager and what I have found that understanding technical drawings often doesn’t really start until the concrete truck is on the site.
Our 4dBarn team is also frequently asked to comment on barn layouts. These contacts inspired us to create this eLearning course. Based on research and our experience, we identified the main functions of a robotic barn and developed a new and inspiring way to communicate them for the benefit of dairy farmers.
I believe that the course will help you to better understand your future barn, even now, when it is just a drawing on paper.
Join in and ensure the success of your barn project!
