AG CUBICLE DISPENSER
Quick, Easy And Economical Use Of Materials
With greater emphasis on cow comfort it is essential to make sure cubicles are well bedded and using an AG cubicle bedding dispenser is the most efficient way. The cubicle bedding dispenser has been developed especially with this in mind, enabling dairy farmers to bed cubicles regularly with speed and ease, minimising dust, and with economical use of materials.
As a result you get comfortable, clean, happy and healthy cows, consequently helping to meet the demand of Dairy Farm Assurance Schemes.
