Undisturbed feeding at the trough is essential for dairy herds. Good feed intake is a prerequisite for production, and the Zen'eat offers an appropriate solution. Simple yet highly effective, this system improves feed intake in a number of ways.
What's the concept? The Zen'eat is a raised, slightly inclined separation of the feed zone, coupled with flexible separators. The gaiter is installed along the fence. Short, flexible plastic bars are fixed at the foot of the headlocks. Positioned every two cows, these dividers (called Divi'zen) attenuate the dominant-dominated relationship, thus avoiding conflicts during meals. The device also enables the cow to be straightened for optimal feed intake.
Zen'eat for a relaxing meal
By eliminating the sources of stress associated with food competition, Zen'eat enables cows to eat in peace and get more out of their ration. Thanks to a dedicated, undisturbed space (the dividers also prevent cows from running onto the step or lying across it), ingestion takes place in complete serenity. No more interruptions, This helps to ensure complete intake of the ration.
The smaller space allocated to each pair of cows and the incline of the walk also help to straighten the animals. They are then positioned in the ideal axis when feeding. Separating the scraping area from the feeding area also means that cows are not inconvenienced by the scraper, while the manure does not soil the step, the length of which has been calculated accordingly.
The rubber coating also makes it easy to maintain, in exactly the same way as a row of cubicles. The non-slip surface also reduces the risk of slipping. A comfortable feeding area designed to help cows feel more at ease, eat more... and the breeder increase herd performance.
Sani'feed, a PVC trough cover
The ideal complement to Zen'eat on the other side of the feed fence, Sani feed is a PVC trough cover that guarantees optimum hygiene. Its smooth surface prevents the proliferation of bacteria and facilitates cleaning. It also improves feed intake, as a clean, fresh ration is always more palatable. The results are quickly visible in all equipped barns: cows are calmer, healthier, ruminate more... and above all, more milk in the tank. Another advantage is that the delimitation of spaces guarantees a perfect level of safety when blocking animals in the event of an intervention (insemination, care...). Last but not least, Sani'feed is easy to install and very affordable.
