Composting Barn Testimonial | Scott & Jan, Southland | SmartShelters

Scott Bixley and Jan Meinen milk 350 cows on 142 hectares in Southland. They calve really late because of their really heavy soils and wet conditions.
They installed a SmartShelter in winter, and the building process was great. In two months, they went from a paddock to cows inside and calving.
The sheer size of the SmartShelter gives them the ability to use it like a feed pad. When it starts getting wet, they can put all 300-odd cows in there and they’re going to be nice and warm. Give them some baleage, get them out of the rain, carry on.
The cows are healthy and happy. They lost their winter coats within a week of being in the SmartShelter, so it’s been really good.
This is going to be an asset for us.
