National Pest Management Plan for TB seeks feedback
As an independent review of the National Pest Management Plan for TB finds the goal of complete eradication by 2055 is still valide, feedback is being sought on how to finish the job.
The new Hydrofan wash-down hose nozzle newly released by Numedic has been tested on DairyNZ research farms, and found able to save at least 1 million L of water annually on a typical 400 cow farm.
Water emerges from the nozzle as a fan jet, and the rotary union in the nozzle body allows the user to clean the cowshed yard in a sweeping motion, saving water and cost.
Manufactured from high grade stainless steel, each nozzle is supplied with a swivel hose-tail in 32mm or 38mm sizes.
Hefty power savings are also possible, says Numedic: less water needs pumping and effluent volumes are lower after wash-down.
