\"Dairy<\/a>

During California heat waves, dairy farms use a lot water and energy to keep their cows cool. UC Davis researchers are trying out new techniques that use less resources.<\/p>\n

Over in the UC Davis dairy barn, scientists try to find a cooling method that\u2019s just as effective as spraying the cows with sprinklers and using fans.<\/p>\n

Theresa Pistochini with the Western Cooling Efficiency Center says the traditional method uses 11,000 gallons of water per cow per year.<\/p>\n

She says heat stress in cows also affects milk production, and spraying the cows can cause health problems. She says that’s costing farmers nationwide $800 million a year.<\/p>\n

Instead, her team tried placing a pad under the cows\u2019 bedding that has chilled water running through it. They also designed a swamp cooler that blasts air over areas where the cows eat and lie down.<\/p>\n

\"Researchers<\/a>

The group says these new methods reduce water by up to 86 percent and electricity up to 38 percent.<\/p>\n

The data still need to be analyzed, but Pistochini says at first look, the new techiques appear to be working.<\/p>\n
