The Ideal Alternative to Traditional Feeders for Sheep, Calves, and Goats.
The JFC FT Ground Feed Trough is an essential, hard-wearing feeder designed to support the natural feeding position of smaller livestock while significantly cutting down on feed waste. Engineered from robust, impact-resistant polyethylene, the FT range offers a safe, hygienic, and long-lasting alternative to heavy, rusting metal or rotting wooden feeders.
Why Upgrade to the JFC FT Trough?
- Promotes Natural Feeding: The low-level design allows animals to feed comfortably from the ground, mimicking their natural grazing position for optimal digestion and comfort.
- Superior Durability: Manufactured from tough, fracture-resistant, and UV-stabilised polyethylene. These troughs are built to withstand abuse, exposure to weather, and resist cracking.
- Eliminates Waste: Keeps valuable meal, concentrates, and dry feed neatly contained and off the ground, reducing spoilage from trampling and fouling.
- Hygienic & Safe: The smooth, polished internal surface is seamless, reducing feed build-up and making cleaning and disinfecting extremely fast and easy. The rounded edges ensure maximum animal safety, eliminating the risk of sharp metal corners.
- Versatile Use: Suitable for use with both wet and dry feed applications, indoors in sheds, or outdoors in paddocks.
