Stud
At the stud farm, the Dugong Scraper was used to prepare acreage for new equine operations. The carefully graded land would provide a suitable environment for breeding and training horses, ensuring that the turf was smooth and conducive to horse racing and other equine activities. The Dugong Scraper played a critical role in achieving the perfect terrain for these operations, creating an even surface that could accommodate the various needs of the horses and the farm. The use of the Dugong Scraper ensured that the land was level, stable, and ready for the installation of necessary infrastructure, such as tracks and training areas.
Site Levelling
At the stud, avery, and feedlot farm pens, precise site levelling was crucial for preparing the land for new equine operations. The Dugong Scraper, attached to the tractor, was used to move and level the soil, ensuring a smooth, even surface across the acreage. The land was graded to perfection, with any uneven spots filled in or smoothed out, providing an ideal foundation for horse training, breeding, and other equine activities. This careful site levelling process created a stable and reliable surface that could support various equine operations, from racing tracks to training areas. The Dugong Scraper helped maintain the consistency and accuracy of the grading process, ensuring that the turf remained in excellent condition.
Drainage
In equine environments, proper drainage is essential to maintain healthy land conditions and prevent water accumulation that could negatively affect the horses. The Dugong Scraper helped reshape the land to facilitate drainage, ensuring water flowed away from critical areas such as barns, stables, and training tracks. By scraping and redistributing soil from higher areas to lower spots, the grader created gentle slopes that ensured effective water runoff. The Dugong Scraper‘s precision was key in creating the proper contours for drainage, ultimately benefiting both the turf and the overall health of the horses. The ability of the Dugong Scraper to rework the land and improve its drainage capabilities was vital in maintaining a safe, healthy environment for equine activities.
Pen Cleaning Hygiene
Maintaining pen cleaning hygiene is a top priority at equine facilities, especially for breeding and training. The Dugong Scraper played a key role in pen cleaning by scraping and leveling the ground around the feedlot pens and paddocks. This process helped remove waste material, compacted soil, and other debris, ensuring that the pens remained clean and safe for the horses. Proper hygiene not only supports the health of the animals but also helps prevent the spread of disease, making it an essential aspect of equine operations. The Dugong Scraper‘s efficiency in leveling and cleaning the pens contributed to the overall maintenance of a healthy and productive facility.
Site Quarantine
To ensure biosecurity, a site quarantine was established for new horses entering the farm. The Dugong Scraper was also used in this area to prepare the quarantine site, grading the land to ensure smooth surfaces and adequate drainage. This created a controlled environment where new arrivals could be monitored and kept separate from other animals until they were confirmed to be healthy. By preparing the land with the Dugong Scraper, the facility maintained strict hygiene and safety protocols, protecting both the horses and the farm environment. The Dugong Scraper played a crucial role in ensuring that the quarantine area met the necessary biosecurity and operational standards.
