Lisgar Cattle Yards – Efficient 350 Head Breeding Yard with Low Stress Design

The "Lisgar" Yards are a prime example of a well-designed 350 head breeding yard, offering improved flow and greater capacity compared to the Nockatunga yards. The entry pen is squared up with the laneway, enhancing cattle movement and operational efficiency.

Key Features of the Lisgar Cattle Yard

• Open working race designed for easy needling and back lining of stock
• Curved race with adjustable vee and 360-degree forcing tub for safe, efficient workflow
• Calf race positioned close to the working race to facilitate future roof installation
• 4-way drafting capability after the crush
• Small return lane to reprocess cattle if necessary, reducing downtime
• Diamond yards and laneway linking draft pens to the working area and feed pens
• Ability to empty any pen back to feed/cooler pens without emptying others, minimizing double handling
• Allows cooler paddocks/feed pens to increase yard capacity beyond 350 head

This design focuses on smooth cattle flow, operator safety, and practical management of larger breeding mobs with low stress cattle handling principles.
