There is space for 200 cows in this yard. It contains a mixture of dairy cows, some aged 10+ years old.
In February 2023, the locking yokes were removed and replaced with a single feed rail. This replacement has seen a noticable increase in feed intakes, as the removal of the yokes has allowed for an extra 50 cows to eat at any one time. It has also meant that cows stand in a more natural position at the feed rail, as they are now standing more squarely and have less pressure exerted on their body. This group is milked first at every milking.
