Gore farmer Peter Hargest recently invested in a triple span Simple Shelter to house his livestock through the winter months.
Covering 1840m2 in total with two 20 metre wide spans and a 6 metre wide span in the centre, the Simple Shelter provides a comfortable and healthy environment for his cows. The triple span with the centre feed pad shelter allows two herds to be housed separately. As well as improving the health of his animals, Mr Hargest is preventing pasture damage and saving on feed wastage. Mr Hargest investigated other animal housing options and selected Simple Shelter because of the superior quality and strength as well as the ability to customise the design to suit his needs.

Heat stress is no stranger to New Zealand dairy farmers, with drier regions of the country such as Northland, King Country, and the Bay Of Plenty each
averaging over 80 sweltering hot heat stress days every year.
In New Zealand, every dairy farmer worth their salt knows just how important it is to look after the welfare of their animals. The health of the herd directly impacts profit margins, which, in turn, determines the viability and sustainability of the farm.
As a nation of farmers with a proud agricultural history, New Zealand is at the forefront of the dairy industry, renowned as a global industry leader with some of the best animal welfare standards in the world.
