[QUOTE="early riser, post: 3790474, member: 11583"] I would like to feed my milking cows down a central feed passageway with a sheargrab to keep things simple. However the gable end where the cows cross to get to collecting yard is also the same end that my silage pits are located - which would mean making multiple trips with loader across a soiled passage, dragging lots of muck/contamination into the feed passage, which is obviously a non-starter. I have seen this at Greenmounts new dairy unit: [ATTACH=full]512642[/ATTACH] Basically some thin plating set level in floor that allows tractor to cross in a clean fashion but then folds up to form barriers to allow cows to cross. Anyone seen anything similar working in practice? It would be too heavy to lift by hand but can't see any ratchet mechanism to raise it in the pictures I've seen?? [/QUOTE]
