COWS CAN EAT FROM BOTH SIDES of this
imak feeder with an auger down the center. Platform
at side of the feeder is about 10 inches high and a
foot wide. The boss cows can not turn sideways beside
the trough and monopolize feeding space, and it is
harder for the cow to back up to the trough and make
manure in the feed Silage comes from the 30’ x 60’
silo at the extreme right. The block wall running al
most the full length of the loafing shed makes the
cows walk a considerable distance between feed or
water and the bedded area. This saves on bedding and
tends to cause the cows to manure outside where
manure can be scraped up. L. F. Photo.
