Managing Water Quality in your Farm Pond

Managing Water Quality in your Farm Pond

Poor farm pond water quality can impact equipment life, and the effectiveness of certain veterinary medicines, chemicals, and cleaners. It can also affect herd health, weight gain and overall farm labour costs.  Whether you’re seeking general water quality improvements, or you need to further treat water to potable standards for milk house use, proper design and management of your farm pond is the most practical and cost-effective approach to improving your water quality.

To manage your farm pond with minimal time, expense and chemicals, you have to work with nature rather than against it.
