The Commercial 82 Head Working Area
This is the Working Area of our 82 Head Yard, offering an exceptional solution for those seeking the advantages of a robust, hot dipped galvanised steel forcing pen and race.
The Working Area in a set of yards often represents the most intense and demanding section. It's widely known that steel provides superior strength and long-term viability, making it a popular choice for yards. By harnessing the strength and modularity of steel, you can optimise your yard's functionality and durability.
Whether you're retrofitting an existing set of yards or constructing a brand new one, the modular nature of our steel Commercial range is a valuable asset. They seamlessly integrates into any yard.
The holding pen has a capacity of 9 head, based on a space allocation of 1.5m² per head. It is designed to comfortably accommodate approximately 2 race loads. This balanced 2:1 ratio aligns with our yard design philosophy, ensuring optimal flow and handling.
The three-section race spans approximately 6m in length, capable of accommodating 4-6 cattle, depending on their size.
To facilitate your installation, we provide timber adaptor brackets as part of these packages.
These can be installed by our Onefarm team, alternatively our comprehensive, easy-to-follow plans come with every package.
Discover the power of our Working Area in the 82 Head Yard, where strength, modularity, and efficiency converge. Trust Onefarm to deliver exceptional quality and performance for all your yard requirements.
Yard Capacity
When contemplating yard capacity, it is crucial to contemplate Holding Capacity and Working Capacity separately.
It's comparable to a kitchen where eight people can stand, but only two people can work efficiently.
If there were eight people standing in the kitchen, no one would be able to work.
The same principle applies to cattle in yards. When handling cattle, they require ample space for turning and movement.
Based on your average adult cattle (450kg), we use 1.5m2 per head for Holding Capacity, or 2.2m2 as a guide for working capacity. This differs based on whether you're running Cows & Calves, Calves alone, Bulls etc.
Race Length - approx. 6m
