Manually Manage Cattle at the Trough

What happens here

With numerous cows crowding the single functional water trough, the farmer uses a long stick (likely an electric fence post) to gently, but firmly, separate the animals. He pushes back cows that have already drunk or are overly assertive, allowing other cows, particularly those in the background, to get access to the water. He explains that cows can drink up to 25 gallons in one sitting, and some are attempting to consume all available water.

Goal: Provide equitable water access to all cattle by managing crowding.
