Water Troughs

Kinaki water troughs are designed to provide the best possible water delivery for livestock based on extensive practical experience. They are manufactured from high strength concrete to ensure that they will withstand the harsh environment of the far. Currently there are two concrete water troughs available. The first is the Kinaki cattle water trough which is specifically designed for dairy cows but is well suited to beef cows, game livestock and other large animals. The second trough available is is the Kinaki sheep water trough, as the name suggests this trough is designed for sheep due its lower height and smaller volume.

Water is important to all life and if animals are contained they need a reliable supply of water within the enclosure.  A lack of water is detrimental to health and can have a serious impact on animal production. For example, with dairy cows, milk is 87% water, so water is critical in the production process. Animals with adequate water are healthier, grow faster and produce more.  Money spent on water always shows an incredible return on investment.  It is not that you get rich with water but rather that you go bankrupt without it.
