Shady Business: Protecting Your Herd with Durable Cattle Shade from The Cover Mart

Protect your cattle from the heat with durable shade cloth structures, ensuring comfort and productivity.

The scorching summer sun can be more than just uncomfortable for your cattle – it can significantly impact their health, productivity, and overall well-being. Heat stress leads to decreased feed intake, reduced weight gain, lower milk production, and increased susceptibility to disease. As a responsible livestock owner, providing adequate shade is crucial, and at The Cover Mart, we offer durable and reliable cattle shade solutions designed to keep your herd cool and thriving.

While we might be known for protecting your grills and patio furniture, The Cover Mart understands the importance of protecting all your valuable assets, including your livestock. Our heavy-duty shade cloths are built to withstand the demands of the agricultural environment, offering a cost-effective and efficient way to mitigate the harmful effects of the sun on your cattle.

Why is Cattle Shade Essential?

• Combats Heat Stress: Just like humans, cattle can suffer from heatstroke and exhaustion. Shade provides a vital refuge, allowing them to regulate their body temperature and avoid dangerous overheating.

• Improves Productivity: Cooler cattle are healthier and more comfortable, leading to increased feed intake, better weight gain in beef cattle, and higher milk yields in dairy cows.

• Enhances Reproductive Health: Heat stress can negatively impact fertility in both male and female cattle. Providing shade can contribute to improved conception rates.

• Reduces Disease Susceptibility: Stressed animals have weakened immune systems. By reducing heat stress, you can help your herd better resist illness.

• Creates a More Comfortable Environment: Shade encourages natural behaviors like resting and rumination, leading to a calmer and less stressed herd.
