Automatic feedingsystem

What is an automatic feedingsystem?

An automatic feedingsysteem feeds the cows by itself. It is a small feedingwagon wich is constructed  under a rail in the barn. At the back of the barn is the kitchen who has to be filled by tractor or wheelloader. In the kitchen is room for several different feedingtypes.
