Hi-Hog livestock equipment is one of the premier equipment manufacturers in North America. It combines outstanding design and rugged construction, for safe, reliable cattle handling.

Researchers around the world have consistently shown that farmers and ranchers who invest in well-designed cattle handling facilities and better livestock management practices are rewarded with gains in their operation. That’s because well cared for animals are healthier, put on weight faster and overall are more productive. The best way to do this is to reduce or remove conditions that cause animal stress.

Livestock handling equipment directly influences how stressful handling is. An optimal cattle handling system considers the instinctive behaviours and sensory traits of your animals and allows cattle to flow efficiently, with less stress and fewer injuries.

You may not know that Hi-Hog can provide a customized design for your farm. After an initial consultation, one of Hi-Hog’s experienced design team members will build a complimentary scaled and itemized CAD drawing that works for your space and unique circumstances. If you need assistance getting it ready for use with your livestock, we can make sure everything works as precisely and smoothly as it was designed to.

Bailie Barnett, Livestock Specialist at Moose Jaw Co-op, recently helped a customer with a new Hi Hog handling system. It was a game changer.

“As soon as we arrived, the crew was singing praises for how smoothly the system worked, and how fast they were able to run their cows through to get them processed,” says Barnett. “In previous years, they would never be done the cows before lunch, and this year they finished the cows at 11 am and started on the calves – something that has only ever happened for them once or twice in all their years of raising cattle.”

How do you go about getting your own custom system designed?

“You can get in touch with myself or any one on the Hi-Hog team,” Barnett explains. “We’ll discuss any unique features you might need, then design a system that fits within your facilities in a way that cattle will enter and flow through quickly and with ease.

As for the customer with the new Hi-Hog system? It cut down their processing time in half.

“It’s a true success story for the farm, Hi Hog, and Moose Jaw Co-op!” emphasizes Barnett. “On top of it, comfortable, low stress animals are healthier and good for your bottom line. And there’s less anxiety for your crew too.”
