Summary

The latest trend in new cow house projects is the size of 50-60 cows with a reservation to expand to 100-120 cows. This is a functioning family size and also suites for AMS-technology.
New constructional concepts are under development to compete with concrete. They are wooden constructions based either on traditional truss technique or glue laminated wood or plywood solutions.
