The title of the video is about the discussion of the rate of gain advantage of your buildings. The video it's self is 5min of stroking the summit livestock ego and 30 secs of rate of gain....I can watch and have watched every single video you guys post. It's all how great the building is. Why we chose summit. As a beef producer, who desperately wants to build one of these buildings. Why can't you do a couple videos where someone actually sits down and discusses the advantages and disadvantages, animal health and well being, feed conversion efficiency, bedding pack vs slat floor, what people would change. You can't sit here and tell me in every video that your buildings are flawless and there's nothing that would be done differently. It's the real world, let the farmers discuss these topics and share those with us. In all honesty, that's what's going to sell your building to me. The numbers. The facts.
@SummitEPC
@SummitEPC 4 жыл бұрын
Good morning! Thank you for your comment. You are right, in all of our videos our customers to talk about why they chose Summit. It's not to toot our own horn, but mainly because of the design and engineering process that we offer along the way. We try to make it as easy as possible for our customers. Dean Gangwer, Duane Riddle, and Brent Lorimor all give good statements about their ROI, feed efficiency, etc. Part of the reason people build monoslopes is because of the design of the building; it makes their operation flow easier and the shade of the summer and heat of the winter helps with cattle comfort (which also helps prove your ROI). If you have any other questions, feel free to call us at (800) 213-0567.

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.
