The CowToilet is an innovative, animal-friendly system that reduces the environmental impact of dairy farming by separating urine from solid manure before ammonia can form. Using cows’ natural behaviour, it collects urine directly under the tail, preventing harmful emissions and significantly cutting nitrogen losses—research shows reductions of up to around 30–40%. The separated urine becomes a valuable fertilizer, while solid manure remains nutrient-rich, improving soil health and offering economic benefits. Developed by Hanskamp with farmers and researchers, the CowToilet supports stricter environmental rules without disrupting routines, turning manure management into a sustainable, practical, and profitable solution for modern agriculture.
