Watch: ‘CowToilet’ invention promises solution to Ireland’s ammonia emissions
Dutch invention collects urine by incentivising cows to visit. Separating urine from manure slashes ammonia emissions ‘by 45pc’ and provides a fertiliser source, manufacturer says
A new system aimed at reducing ammonia emissions on farms, the ‘CowToilet’, is beginning to create waves in Ireland, according to its Dutch manufacturer, Hanskamp.
The system has been developed to collect cow urine, keeping it separate from solid manure, and in turn giving the farm a highly impactful fertiliser.
