The design drawing of the cowshed for 50 cows is as follows:
1. The span and height of the cowshed
The span is generally 10-12m, and the height is 4.5- 5m. The eaves are 2.8-3.3m above the ground. The length depends on local conditions, and large-scale breeding generally requires about 100 animals to be raised in one building.
2. Floor, cow bed and passageway
The floor of the cowshed can be made of cement, which is durable and easy to clean and disinfect. The length of the cattle bed is generally 1.6-1.8m for fattening cattle, 1.8-1.9m for adult cows, and 1.1-1.2m wide. The slope of the cow bed is 1.5%, with the front being higher and the back being lower. Beef and live cattle prices, I hope everyone will recommend our platform to more cattle herds.
The cow bed is paved with cement to make it solid and durable, and easy to clean and disinfect. The passages of the cattle house can be divided into central passage and feed passage. For double-row cow houses with tail-type feeding, the central channel is 1.3-1.5m wide, and the feed channels on both sides are each 0.8-0.9m wide.
Double-row cow houses for head-to-head feeding, the middle aisle is 1-1.5m wide. Generally speaking, the width of the passage should be based on the principle that the feeding vehicle and the cleaning vehicle can pass through, and wider is better.

Principles of building a cowshed.
The purpose of building a cattle shed is to create a suitable living environment for cattle and ensure the health of cattle and the normal operation of production. Spend less capital, energy, feed and labor to obtain more livestock products and higher economic benefits. For this reason, the design of beef cattle housing should adhere to the following four principles.
1. It must comply with the production process requirements, ensure the smooth progress of production and the implementation of animal husbandry and veterinary technical measures.
The beef cattle production process includes the composition and turnover method of the herd, transportation of forage, feeding Feeding, drinking water, cleaning feces, etc. It also includes technical measures such as measurement, weighing, semen collection and insemination, prevention and treatment, and production care. The construction of cattle sheds must be combined with the production technology of the site. Otherwise, it will definitely cause inconvenience to production and even make production impossible.
2. Create a suitable environment for cattle
A suitable environment can fully unleash the production potential of cattle and improve feed utilization. Generally speaking, 20% of livestock productivity depends on breed, 40%-50% depends on feed, and 20%-30% depends on environment. Unsuitable ambient temperatures can reduce livestock productivity by 10-30%.
