FREESTALL AND CORRIDOR EXPANSION

MARKLE, INDIANA

Wagler & Associates constructed a freestall and corridor expansion at dairy’s existing farm setup. The project included a 111’ x 867’ galvanized steel 6 row freestall barn.  The barn allowed the farmer to add an additional 1,200 cows. It featured a vacuum scrape, waterbeds and daytime light simulation. 

Wagler & Associates then added a new 120’ corridor to connect the existing facility to the new.  The corridor includes a loading ramp and gate setup to smoothly load and unload cattle.  It incorporates and extended step to allow the farmer room to step next to the cattle as they enter and exit the area.
