Making the Most of Your Farm with Efficient Mud Control
When you're working on a productive farm, efficiency is everything and excess mud can be the biggest slowdown for you to deal with daily. From animal feeds to transporting machinery, dirty ground conditions inhibit normal processes, which means there is more labor to be done, more upkeep, and increased risks to safety Rain or shine, Michigan Mud Control has solutions that we know work for your farm, too.
How Mud Works Against Farm Efficiency
Progressively greater mud can create slippery and muddy ground for wildlife, resulting in slower movement and a higher incidence of injury. The primary problems are:
-
Downstream movements, with difficulties in accessing grazing grounds, lead to reduced food intake and lower growth rates.
-
Stress has increased in the herd of animals, especially in herds that produce meat and milk, affecting activity.
-
Increased hoof disease incidence resulting in expensive veterinary bills and lost working time.
Lack of Equipment and More Maintenance
Mud doesn’t just hurt animals, but wrecks machinery and vehicles on the farm. The challenges posed by wet, deep ground are:
They spend up to 30 minutes more each day dealing with tractors and All-Terrain Vehicles that can’t get to where they need to go, impeding everything from feeding, removing manure, and performing the necessary work in the fields.
Faster wear and tear on tires, undercarriages, and engines from constant contact with wet, muddy ground.
As aforementioned, regular repairs on the road and pathways with related maintenance and workforce needs.
Unoptimized Workflows and Time Loss
So every minute wasted in resolving mud-related problems translates to loss of time from precious farm activities. Here are some of the biggest inefficiencies:
-
Indirectly can also cause your flock to take more time feeding and cleaning, which limits overall your productivity.
-
Takes longer to access barns and pastures and paddocks, and more time and money in labor.
-
Delays affect crop yield and profitability.
