Keywords: resource-saving technologies, easy-assembled premises, maintenance conditions, efficiency, productivity of animals

Abstract

High productivity of dairy cows in the conditions of new innovative technologies can not be obtained without providing comfortable conditions for their functioning.In this connection, the conditions for maintaining high-yielding cows in various types of livestock buildings are investigated: the traditional, 24.0 m wide and new unassembled, 32.5 m wide and 36.0 m in extreme periods of the year. The different width of the premises is due to the need to use different types of milking plants: MilkProud, Parallel, Carousel and robotic milking systems.Studies have established that volumetric-planning and technological solutions for easy-assembled premises increase the volume of space per head from 45.6 m3 to 96.3 m3 and 129.6 m3. It positively affects the conditions for the maintenance of highly productive cows. The presence in their design of side curtains and light-aeration ridge increases the speed of air in 3 times. This provides a reduction in the concentration of ammonia in 8 times, and bacterial pollution at 18.7 times compared with traditional barn.Increasing the volume of the room up to 129.6m³ per head reduces the bacterial air pollution in the winter period to a minimum value of 2.8 thousand/m³. New elements in the design of easy-assembled spaces provide resource-saving and organizing their lighting.According to the existing standards in Ukraine, the lighting in the feeding area should be at 52 lux. In traditional rooms, this level is achieved only by installing additional energy sources, which provide an increase in lighting from 31 lux to 52 lux. In new types of premises the required level of lighting is provided naturally, which leads to significant energy savings. It was established that technological solutions of easy-assembled premises provide comfortable conditions for recreation of high-yielding cows.In these types of rooms, the animals rest 12.4% and 20.0% more time compared to traditional rooms. Feeding of cows in easy-assembled premises from the stern table provides quick feeding of animals with feed. At the same time the time consumed for feed consumption in new types of barns is significantly less and is 252.0246.0 min a day compared to 320.2 min in traditional premises where feeding is carried out from traditional feeding troughs.It is positive that in the new types of premises in animals there is a new important element of behavior the movement, which they spend 8.6% and 9.9% of the time. New types of premises with resource-saving milk production technologies have a positive effect on the conditions for the maintenance of highly productive cows and can be widely implemented in Ukraine.
