Novel Way of Exercising the Bull by Prof Fraser
Prof Fraser head of the dairy department at the University of Illinois has devised a treadmill system to exercise a Holstein herd bull daily for an hour or more. A protected gangway from the pen allows a handler to lead the bull using a nose rope, with the bull kept beneath a fence to prevent attack. The device is not for work output but to wear out the animal’s energy, while suggesting practical farm uses such as running the cream separator. Also notes on orchard tree care and milk testing as dairy improvements.
