In beef bull farming, the use of open barns with fully slotted floors is widespread. For economical and achievement-oriented production the following points are important:
• Correct density level and group size • Animal to feeding place ratio 2:1 • Group size not more than 16 – 18 animals • Supply feeding • Pen size in this system must be aligned to the terminal weight • Allow for safe herding facilities: An 80 cm wide alley behind the pens which can also be used as inspection walkway has proven effective • Pen dividers: sturdy 4 or 5 bar panels • Drinking troughs: built into dividers for protection
