improving feeding efficiency. Allows free stall
operators to feed each cow according to her pro
duction and body weight requirements. Avoids

producers, which means more profits for you.
This system gives you
• individual cow feeding capability
• timed and measured portions
• no more feed stealing
• unhurried feeding
• daily consumption data
• “off feed” alert
• complete breedmg/calvmg/lactation
management program (optional)
