Experience how modern livestock housing by McGregor can transform productivity and yields on your farm.
In the sphere of commercial livestock housing, traditional agricultural buildings have been a mainstay of agribusiness operations for centuries and by now, farmers are extremely familiar with the level of inflexibility and unscalability of traditional agricultural buildings for livestock housing.
Therefore, if you have been considering the prospect of building high-welfare and weatherproof shelters for your commercial flocks and herds, chances are you have already considered the traditional steel agricultural buildings but are hesitant to make a final decision due to the countless disadvantages, challenges, and costs that come with building traditional farm buildings.
Efforts to address the above shortcomings of traditional fixed livestock houses have given rise to high-performance modular structures that are specifically designed for modern livestock housing, such as Agri Span, that agribusinesses can effortlessly deploy and adapt to best suit their specific operations.
By opting for these robust and modular steel-framed agricultural buildings that excel in housing all types of livestock allows livestock businesses to boost yields and maximise returns through the adaptable and high-welfare spaces they create.
What are the most notable disadvantages of traditional farm buildings for livestock housing?
Even though farms have relied on the traditional steel barns and livestock sheds for protecting their animals for decades, however, the demands of modern operations have meant that these structures are struggling to keep up with their more modular and modern counterparts.
In a head-to-head comparison, here are some major drawbacks in practical applications arising from the traditional livestock housing options:
Modular steel-framed agricultural buildings, such as Agri Span, allow farmers to overcome many of these limitations in traditional livestock housing to establish high-welfare spaces with abundant space, natural lighting, access, and airflow to help animals grow, remain healthy, and thrive.
What makes modern modular steel-framed agricultural buildings a better choice for housing livestock?
Here are the primary capabilities of modular steel-framed agricultural buildings specifically designed for livestock housing, such as Agri Span that put them ahead of traditional buildings for housing commercial herds and flocks of livestock in productive and modern livestock operations:
High portability and flexibility
Staff can move the modular structure to different locations, change its orientation, or adjust its placement. This is essential when systematically relocating flocks to fresher grounds
Easy access for cleaning and sanitising
The modularity of the structures offers generous and convenient access points to enable the structures to be washed, cleaned, and sanitised either individually or in batches
Hygienic and healthy environment
Livestock farmers can prevent the spread of parasites and pathogens among their flocks due to good drainage, dry and moisture-free environments, and proper airflow within the structure
Comfortable and humane high-welfare housing
The modular structures provide adequate space, ventilation, lighting, and clean enrichments for high-welfare housing of livestock in either free-range or organic configurations
Economical and sustainable modular housing
Livestock farms can save on feed, water, bedding, and energy by opting for modular livestock housing to optimise the use of resources and boost savings while increasing yields
