4 Water Well Underground waterlines Access points Fountains
5 Well Pump Submersible ¾ Horsepower Pressure tank 85 gallon Heater 1500 watts
6 6 feet deep PVC pipe 2 diameter Gopher proof Adequate pressure 20 lengths Double gasket couplings Underground waterlines
7 Trenching Good going Sandy loam No rocks Trench wall stands up good
8 Trenching Not so good going Low area Trench collapses Ground water high Back hoed 200 Filled pipe with water Hold down & cover
9 Installing waterlines Connecting pipe Lowering pipe
10 Crossing roads Traffic Buried telephone wires Packing
11 Access Points Digging out for 15 tile Using 1 x 6 board to prevent the dirt from going back in the trench
12 Access Points Attaching quick coupler hydrant to 2 waterline before it is lowered into trench
13 Access Points 15 tile Backfilled Packed Bentenite
14 Access Points Looking down 6 to the quick coupler hydrant on 2 PVC waterline
15 Accessing the Waterline Remove cover 1 riser pipe
16 Accessing the waterline Uncover hydrant Snap riser pipe into hydrant
17 Our First Energy Free Fountain Two Hole Mirafount Old concrete floor 5 x 9 insulated tube Water level critical for seal Lack of water pressure as cattle are drinking allows cold air in
18 Energy Free Fountain Two hole Ritchie Bird & cattle waste can get in Poured concrete pad 1 4 x 8 dense styrofoam 15 tile with a 5 x 14 insulated tube
19 Portable Energy Free Fountain Two hole Mirafount Flip up lids 8 x 8 bridge plank platform 15 tile 5 x 14 insulated tube Precise water level not as important Air can t get in even with low water level
20 Portable Energy Free Fountain Two hole Pride of the Farm Poly lids 8 x 8 bridge plank platform 15 tile 5 x 14 insulated tube
21 Portable Energy Free Fountain Two hole Highcroft One poly lid One rubber lid 8 x 8 bridge plank platform 15 tile 5 x 14 insulated tube
22 Portable Energy Free Fountain Poly lid Cornstalks around fountain before ground freezes
23 Old Fountain Mirafount from 70 s Bigger, weaker, not as efficient, much larger float
24 Old Style Energy Free System
25 Windbreaks University of Wyoming model 90 degree V shaped protection barrier reduces wind speed & diverts drifting snow
26 Windbreaks Number of animal units (AU s) protected by barrier heights H Height (H) Wings (L) Width (D) Area (A) AU s (ft) (ft) (ft) (ft2) , , , , , Area of protection zone with 60-80% wind reduction.

31 Windbreak Beginning winter Four 10 x 12 panels Forty 5 x 6 round cornstalk bales One 7 x 12 perforated panel
32 Drift formed southeast of east wing Windbreak
33 Windbreak West wing cornstalk bales replaced by perforated panels Snow comes through perforated panels
34 Snow free area Snow drift downwind from wing Cornstalk bales replaced by perforated panels Windbreak
35 Windbreak Cattle spread over 20 acres Fed hay & cornstalks all over pasture
36 Windbreak Portable windbreaks northwest & southeast of energy free fountain Bedded inside windbreak
37 Windbreak Four portable perforated panels Farmsite & bale pile are major snowcatch
38 Winter Feeding Bales set out for winter feeding
39 Feeding the bales Winter Feeding
40 Think Spring!
41 Winter Feeding Direct cut lacerated vacuum haylage Use round bales to hold down plastic once opened
42 Winter Feeding 50 x high 52 loads
43 Winter Feeding Buckton wagon Tractor & grapple fork Should have used slice
44 Winter Feeding Grazing cornstalks Feeding under electric wire
45 Winter Feeding Brought cows home for calving Feed with Buckton against electric wire
46 Winter Feeding Early spring feeding on hillside Standing corn Windbreak & fountain
47 Winter Feeding Fat steers in the grazing corn
48 Strip grazing standing corn to supplement hay in early spring Winter Feeding
49 Wire Winder Adjustable diameter Mounted on bale fork hydraulic
50 Wire Winder Variable speed hydraulic valve Hydraulic motor Be careful
51 Corner Small fiberglass corner Screw-in auger For one or two wires
52 Handling the hot wire Get in the bucket Don t grab ground wire at the same time Insulation Bucket
53 My Little Helper
54 Credits Jairell & Schmidt USDA Forest Service Rocky Mountain Forest and Range Experiment Station, Laramie, Wyoming their research gave us the confidence that we could keep cattle out in the cornfields using portable windbreaks and an underground water system West Central Research & Outreach Center, UM Morris, Minnesota; MDA Sustainable Ag Grant; SARE Grant provided valuable support enabling us to winter on different areas of our farms
