Do Not Forget The Handling System!
When we talk to farmers regarding weighing, drafting etc, meny forget the need
for the whole handling system to work well, not just the weigh crate or drafter.
This also goes for recording sheep manually with eid readers.
1. Handing sheep in a race is much easier than in a pen, so first thing is a good
race.
2. Driving sheep in is good, as long as they then don't turn round and run out,
So anti backing gates are very usefull.
3. The Prattley Autodrafter can easily handle 500 sheep an hour, so you need
space for those pens. |
