Reducing Heat Stress in Livestock Buildings
Summer climate management

During the summer, maintaining a cool and dry climate in livestock buildings is vital. Heat waves and high humidity cause heat stress that directly impacts milk production, feed intake, animal health, and overall well-being. Manually managing openings is often too slow to react effectively to sudden temperature increases.

EDAMS automation systems address this challenge by motorizing existing facade curtains and high-level openings. This dynamic ventilation is regulated in real time according to the temperature, humidity, and wind measured by our sensors. The system’s intelligence ensures an immediate response to climatic variations. For example, the openings can be adjusted gradually to ensure constant air renewal, essential for preventing heatstroke, maintaining dry bedding, and removing ammonia.

EDAMS automation integrates seamlessly with modern farm tools. The farmer controls the climate management of their building remotely via smartphone, guaranteeing optimal comfort for their herd even when they are away. This precise control of the openings not only improves animal welfare but also contributes to better feed efficiency and more stable production. By maintaining a thermal comfort zone, unnecessary energy expenditure is reduced, and resources are used more efficiently.

Investing in EDAMS automation for your livestock building means choosing performance, animal comfort, and ease of daily management. It means securing your production in the face of increasingly hot summers and giving you the peace of mind of knowing your herd is constantly protected.
