Don’t miss this one. 🔥 💧

Sue has experience. Real experience. Decades of boots on the ground, making cow cooling work. 💪

From Japan to Qatar, Indonesia to Australia (and the list goes on and on) She’s seen a thing or two.

Cows care about results and we've got them, in every climate type that exists. 😎

Choosing the right bedding material means looking beyond the price tag. 🎯

In his latest article for Ag Proud, inBarn’s Dan Veeneman examines the bigger picture, including cow comfort, udder health, labour requirements, manure-system compatibility and total cost of ownership.

Deep-bedded sand can be difficult to beat when it is managed correctly, but no bedding material succeeds on its own. The best system is the one that fits the farm’s people, facilities and daily routines and can be maintained consistently. 🤔

Read the full article:

Choosing the right bedding material: Looking beyond the price tag The real question is not “What is the best bedding material?” The better question is “Which bedding system fits our farm’s management style, facilities and labour – and which one will we maintain correctly every day?”

A fascinating conversation about the evolution of the free stall system. 🐮

John de Jonge has over 30 years experience in the dairy industry and a track record of pushing cow comfort forward around the world.

John and Paul talk about why a freestall system was needed, how it was developed, and the future of cow comfort in industries who still are adopting this "new to them" system.

You'll also learn a little bit about John's personal journey, the lessons he learned on his family dairy farm, and how those lessons have persisted throughout his career in the dairy manufacturing business.

A fascinating breakdown of the evolution of the modern systems we see today.

A must watch! 😎

Fan Down?

We've got you. 💪

We were proud to take part in the Grazing on the Greens golf event in Dell Rapids!

A great event, with great people, and some of the best jerky in the state. (maybe in the country) 😉

Thanks to Central Plains Dairy Expo for another great event!

Start where it’s hottest. Start where it’s simplest. 🐄☀️

The holding pen is often the hottest area on the dairy farm. With high cow density, limited airflow, and cows waiting before milking, it’s a critical place to reduce heat stress.

The good news? It’s also one of the most cost-effective places to start cooling cows.

Research shows that proper holding-pen cooling can deliver measurable results:
✅ 1.9°C (3.5°F) drop in body temperature when cows are cooled before milking
✅ +0.8 kg (1.7 lb) more milk per cow per day with holding-pen cooling
✅ +2.3 kg (5 lb) more milk per cow per day when cows are cooled 30 minutes, 5 times per day

Cooling cows doesn’t have to start with a complete barn redesign.

Sometimes, the biggest impact comes from targeting the hottest moments of the day — when cows need relief the most.

Cool cows. Protect production. Start with the holding pen. 💪

Wondering what sets inBarn apart? Attention to detail...

A successful dairy project isn't just about the equipment, it's about getting every detail right before installation begins.

From the day an order is placed to the day the first headlock, freestall, or fan is installed, inBarn Solutions Inc. helps keep your project moving forward.

✅ Ordering the right equipment for your project
✅ Coordinating manufacturing and delivery timelines
✅ Reducing costly delays and scheduling headaches
✅ Ensuring equipment arrives when your project needs it
✅ Supporting your team from planning through installation

Because building a better barn starts long before construction begins. 💪

Every meter per second matters. 💪

A fan doesn't cool cows, the right airspeed does. 🤓

At inBarn, we engineer ventilation strategies that deliver optimal airspeed where it matters most: at cow level. Every detail, from fan placement to airflow design, is planned to create an environment where cows stay comfortable, healthy, and productive. 🐮

We dial in airspeed at the feedlane, above the stalls (where you cows recover and rest) and at the ends of the barns for optimal efficiency and performance.

Airspeed matters.✅ Strategy matters.✅ Details matter. ✅
