In the modern farming age, technology is continually evolving and advancing, allowing for the more efficient management of dairy farms and barns. Here at Dairypower we have created up-to-date and unique Slurry Management solutions which can assist you in modernising your dairy farm. Slurry from housed livestock contains valuable nutrients that should be recycled back to land in an environmentally sustainable manner, and we provide a range of bespoke solutions for all of these needs.

Floor hygiene is the core element in overall shed cleanliness, and indeed it is a key factor to consider when caring for dairy cows and rearing maiden heifers. Dairypower has designed and installed thousands of custom systems across the globe to deal with these requirements present in any dairy farm, and we have been leaders in creating unique solutions ensuring maximum cleanliness. 

Installing and using one of our market-leading scraper systems will assist with these tasks, where the cattle will not have to stand/walk on their own slurry for a long period of time, and it has the added bonuses of reducing both labour time and costs of running your dairy farm, as the farmer does not need to worry about manually scraping the shed passageways due to the integration of our bespoke slurry scraper systems.

We offer a choice of either Eco-Clean Rope Scraper  system or the Pro-Clean Ratchet Scraper System. These two unique solutions will scrape the floors several times a day or night, thanks to the timer in combination with our scraper system. These scraper systems ensure the cleanest solution with the least amount of labour to achieve this result.

We also offer another system: the Smart Slurry Aeration System, and this can assist with the effective storage of slurry once it has been scraped from your milking parlour floor. This system reduces the storage capacity required, as rainwater is not collected and also reduces gaseous exchange with air to further reduce ammonia loss. Stores are mixed via a ‘low rate’ aeration system which works on a low pressure, high volume basis and greatly reduces both methane and hydrogen sulphide production during slurry storage. 

This has positive environmental benefits including reduced risks caused by harmful slurry gases produced when agitating the slurry with a tractor agitator. Our systems can ensure slurry is always in a consistent state and ready for spreading whenever conditions allow which is another very important feature of this storage system. As our Smart Slurry Aeration System is designed to reduce ammonia emmisions, it improves its value as a fertiliser by increasing the Nitrogen value of the slurry. This Nitrogen contributes to the raised nutrient value of the slurry.

The benefits of this system include:

• Fully Automated – set up cleaning times and frequency to your needs using the timer settings
• Optimum cleaning
• Low-energy consumption
• Faster cleaning cycle
• Quiet operation
