Mobile Hydraulic System for Regenerative Livestock

The video demonstrates a mobile hydraulic system for regenerative livestock, showing how water is stored, routed, and delivered to different animal groups in a pasture.

Water storage & setup

  • A 2,500-liter storage tank serves as the main supply unit.
  • The setup includes two additional 2,500-liter tanks.
  • There are also upper reservoirs of ~30 m³ each, but they are not currently in use.

Plumbing / water distribution

Water is routed through:

  • A valve connection
  • A one-inch hose leading to the cows’ grazing area

The goal is to deliver water directly to where the animals are located.

Water needs estimate (used to plan capacity)

  • Assumes each cow consumes about 80 liters/day.
  • Example given:
    • 40 cows ≈ 3,200 liters/day
  • Notes on variability:
    • On wet pasture, water consumption decreases.
    • On days with little sun, consumption decreases further.

Delivering water by animal group

The hose is redirected to multiple paddocks/areas (referred to as groups):

  • Group 1 and Group 2: for cows
  • Group 3: for horses (described as the “refresher” group)

The system includes water delivery that must be checked as it passes through an electric fence.

Monitoring & safety / flow control

  • Emphasizes performing a final check to confirm water reaches its destination.
  • Describes expected fill/flow behavior:
    • Once the equipment/tank is full, water does not continue flowing (indicating controlled/managed delivery).
  • Notes the setup becomes completely sealed once completed.

Notable locations, products, and references

  • Carlos is referenced as helping with equipment/permit placement.
  • Mentions a mobile hydraulic network and hydraulic storage tanks (2,500 liters).
  • Electric fence is used as part of the water delivery path.
  • No specific travel destinations or recipes are mentioned.
