Objective:
-Establishing a modern farm with a hydroponic
fodder system.
-Brief history of hydroponic agriculture.
-Water use efficiency under hydroponic conditions
Outline:
-Hydroponic fodder system
-Water efficiency
-Benefits of fodder over cattle health
-Cost reduction
-Conclusion
Introduction:
-Hydroponic fodder is produced by growing
seeds without soil, and with very little water,
within six-seven days the seeds are sprouted
the seedlings will be up to 30-35 cm tall and
provide a highly nutritious fodder
History:
The methods of hydroponic fodder production date back to the
1800s or earlier, from the 'Hanging Gardens of Babylon' era,
when European dairy farmers fed sprouted grains to their cows
during winter to maintain milk production and improve fertility
Water efficiency:
Reducing agricultural water use while maintaining or improving
economic productivity of the agricultural sector is a major
challenge.
Benefits:
The fodder produced from the system is highly
palatable, which makes eating more enjoyable for
your animals. You can expect healthier livestock, with
increased energy levels and fertility rates, as well as
glossier coats in horses, cleaner eggs in laying
operations and higher milk yields in goats and cattle
Cost reduction:
Producing fodder is a cost effective way to provide a
consistent source of high quality nutrition to your livestock.
Conclusion: Hydroponic fodder systems make the most sense
for organic and/or grass-fed livestock operations, smaller family
farms, “hobby operations” and horse stables
