Why is good barn ventilation so important
All about heat stress in the barn and its consequences
In this section, we would like to share with you our experience and knowledge on the subject of heat stress in the barn, its consequences and how to avoid it. The health of your animals, from calves to cattle, and thus not least the milk yield and lower breakdown costs and veterinary costs, are heavily dependent on it. We at Dr. Knopf and Oswald are farmers and know what we are talking about, from practical experience for practical use. Stable ventilation through hose ventilation for uniformly cool air, regardless of the area of your stable.

Milk quality and heat stress
Heat stress: How ER can change the composition of milk High temperatures are a major challenge for dairy cows. Cows can develop initial heat stress even at temperatures well below 20°C. This not only affects the health and well-being of the animals, but also the...

Temperature & humidity: How tube ventilation ensures an optimal barn climate
How hose ventilation improves the barn climate More than just temperature Optimum barn ventilation with hose systems reduces heat stress, improves air quality and thus contributes to better cow health and performance. Investing in efficient ventilation not only...
Fresh air through barn ventilation
Bereiten Sie Ihr System optimal auf die neue saison vor Seien Sie gut vorbereitet auf die steigenden Temperaturen Mit dem Ende des Winters steigen die Temperaturen, und die Bedingungen im Stall verändern sich. Eine gut vorbereitete Schlauchbelüftung sorgt für eine...
Effect of heat stress on the cow’s water balance
Water intake and heat stress in dairy cattle How heat stress can affect the cow's water balance Water is an important component of physiological processes in the body. In dairy cows, the water balance also directly influences milk production. Under normal...
Effect of heat stress on pregnancy and calf
An early foundation for healthy development Effect of heat stress on pregnant cows and calf growth Did you know that the influence of heat stress on both pregnancy and the growth of the calves born is often underestimated? High temperatures often have a negative...
Fresh air through barn ventilation
Fresh air through barn ventilation Avoid poor air quality in the barn Did you know that calves do not yet have fully developed lungs at birth? It takes up to a year before they are fully developed! Poor air quality can quickly cause respiratory disease in calves....
CAT3000® hose ventilation
CAT3000® hose ventilation Preventing heat stress during milk production Our cows like it best between -4 and 5 degrees when they are in the first 100 days of lactation. High temperatures make it difficult for the animals - after all, producing milk is exhausting....
How heat stress develops in cattle
Heat stress - how does it occur? Recognize when it's too hot for my cows High metabolic performance and energy conversionCows produce a considerable amount of body heat due to their high metabolic performance. Around 31% of the energy consumed is converted into...
Symptoms of heat stress
Consequences of too high temperatures in the barn Symptoms of heat stress In summer, the rising temperature and humidity can mean that cows are no longer able to release their body heat sufficiently. This results in heat stress, which has far-reaching consequences...
