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.

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...
