It can't be that cold on the farm! Vintage Toyota get's some use!
What happens here
The farmer demonstrates his heated water trough system for the cattle. He explains that despite the sub-freezing temperatures (16-17°F), the water in the troughs is flowing and unfrozen, maintaining a temperature of approximately 45°F due to a continuous flow from a pond. He highlights the effectiveness of this simple system in preventing ice buildup, eliminating the need to break ice manually.
Goal: Ensure water access for cattle in freezing conditions
