[QUOTE="brettsacks, post: 7375504, member: 155431"] Thanks for your input. In terms of my estimation... I suspect that a pressure hose at 7 litres a minutes @ 10 minutes will yield 70 litres a day. My milking system line will need ~80 litres a day for wash down. Thus, from a milking parlour side, it'll be 150l of water. This water is mixed with a little cow poo and wee that remains in the milking parlour after scraping. It's common practice to spread this dirty water on a field as irrigation - 150 litres won't do much in the way of irrigation but will be a cheap removal. So, if I have underestimated water, it's in the food processing unit. I've just used a rough 150 litres a day which I thing is conservative. Interested in your thoughts... [/QUOTE]
