New shed improves farm’s e iciency at feeding time

Welsh farmer Mr Huw E Hughes contacted Graham Heath Construction for a building quote, as he was looking to develop his current farm and required a building that made feeding time much more e cient.

Huw rears young stock and runs a sheep enterprise producing lambs for the market and rearing replacement females.

He ordered a 100x40x15ft livestock building with a 4ft 6in cantilever, grey bre cement roof with alternating ridge and 20 roof lights, Yorkshire boarding cladding and 90mm thick concrete panels to a height of 2m. He says Graham Heath’s sta were very helpful from start to nish. “Nothing was too much to ask and I would de nitely recommend in the future.”

The aim of the new building was to try and make Huw’s farming system more e cient and save valuable time when it came to feeding and bedding the cows. A modern farm shed such as this ticks all the boxes in terms of e ciency, lighting and ventilation, he says.

They can now feed all the cattle indoors, improving e ciency and keeping silage waste to a minimum. Huw concludes: “I am particularly pleased with the head room we’ve got in the shed. It’s well-ventilated housing for cattle, as well as being a very well-lit shed, with four sky lights in each bay.”
