with maintenance of all limitations shows diagram

below (Fig. 1).

Fig. 1. Choice of solutions.

Set V

is a common part of sets K, R, S and E, fulfilling

all limitations, was:

K - set of cow sheds fulfilling limitation I,

R - set of cow sheds fulfilling limitation II

S - set of cow sheds fulfilling limitation III,

E - set of cow sheds fulfilling limitation IV.

RESULTS

There were twelve cow shed chosen fulfilling

preliminary criteria. The object tested was described

in the scope of technological-architectural solutions

with including ways of mechanisation of treatments:

milking and milk cooling, preparing of feed and

feeding, natural manure removing and storaging.

There were decision-making technical, technological,

quality and economic variables identified. Table

1 shows common characterization of cow shed

tested, unitary investment’s costs, unitary electric

and mechanic energy inputs. The farms studied are

a kind of individual farms. The area of agricultural

land was from 34 ha to 802 ha. The cow sheds were

built in the last ten years. There were four cubical,

littered, four cubical non- littered, four deep litter cow

sheds researched. They had high, at least 5

th

level of

mechanization and average annual milk yield of herd

from 6200 to 9600 litres.

Milking

was in milking parlors, herring-bone 2x4

(4 cow sheds), 2x5 (5 cow sheds), one 2x6 milking

parlor, one tandem 2x4 milking parlor and in two cow

sheds – by automatic system. The power of milking

pump were 0,55 kW. Milk tanks had capacities from

1600 litres to 10 000 litres and their power was from

1,25kW to 6 kW.

Roughage mixed with concentrates was fed by

feed mixer with the capacities from 7 to 20 m

. They

worked with tractors from 52 HP to 160 HP together.

In two cow sheds forage was fed directly by tractor

and loader. The loader cooperating with tractors in

ten cows sheds and in two self –going loaders with the

power from 60 HP to 100 HP were used for loading

of forage on feed mixer. In two robotized cow sheds

forage on the feeding table was pushed by feed pusher,

a kind of robot which can drive and push the forage in

the direction of feeding corridor.

Natural manure from deep litter system was

removed by loaders and tractors. In three cubicle cow

sheds with litter manure was removed by manure

scraper with total power (longitudinal and cross

scraper) from 4 kW (2 cow sheds) to 4,5 kW directly

on the manure plate. In one cubical, littered cow shed,

manure was removed by shovel installed on the tractor

with 52 HP. Slurry from four non-littered cow sheds

was storaged in deep channels under slatted floor and

periodically applicated on fields. In addition, in two of

them, there were robots for cleaning of slatted floors.

The buildings tested were as one-room spaced or

pyloned construction.The ventilationwas gravitational

with the outlet of air by roof ridge gap. The detailed

characteristic of cow sheds, types of mechanization of

treatments and technical, technological, economical

andqualityvariables obtainedwas showed in the table1.
