This video features an in-depth interview with the building owner, Mr. Dean Gangwer of Cutler, Indiana.
In this video, Dean discusses why he chose Summit Livestock Facilities to build his monoslope, how he uses the facility to optimize cattle performance and why he elected to build a zero-discharge facility even though permitting was not required.

What an awesome cattle facility. Dean has a real appreciation for his cattle. I have been looking at this idea for some time and this is a very good example for me to follow. Getting tired of the wild, wild west attitude of cattle just running everywhere and the manure going everywhere but where it should.

Rule of thumb is make sure you are already profitable before you jump In kind of like when I told you a little 95 up Kubota was an awesome hay tractor you said you didn't think about them much and farming lie from Pennsylvania said spend a fortune on a new jd which he now has more equipment then land you just cant outsource yourself to quickly take the time use what works and gets the money coming in then add more by going with a finishing barn good luck to you i know you have had challenges that flood sure wiped out your area

Hi, Jack! Our portion of the project was only the building shell. To get an idea at cost, this is what we generally tell our customers. All of these prices are per head, except for the cow calf pricing, that is per pair. Bed pack: $800 - 1200 Deep Pit: $1000-1400 PacSlat: $900-$1300 Cow-Calf: $1600 - $3600

Hi Cham, the owner of the building usually stores the manure until ready to spread it as fertilizer over row crops. You can find out more information about the fertilizer value of manure and manure management here: www.summitlivestock.com/news-events/new-manure-management-information-for-feedlot-operators/

There is one drawback those animals are meant to do walking and grazing. I have only five head and they do make pudding . I’m new to the game however I see happy cattle. They walk a little to water then hay feeder and bunk . I have large stall fresh bedding every day and I control manure with composting as well. It just seems like the chicken house mentality. I would have to se it in person I guess. Maybe it’s okay . Not judging . More of a hobby with me.
