Beef Trough 3000mm
£462.98 Inc. VAT
The LM Bateman Beef Trough 3000 mm is much more than an elongated metal box. It is a carefully proportioned, heavy-duty feeding solution created to match the realities of modern beef finishing – higher stocking densities, tighter labour budgets, and rising commodity prices. By combining extra volume with a design that sits perfectly in front of standard feed fences, Bateman offers farmers a straightforward path to improved feed efficiency and herd performance. Invest once, feed efficiently, and watch both calves and margins grow.
Feeding large groups of cattle quickly, cleanly, and with minimum waste is a daily priority on any progressive beef unit. LM Bateman’s Beef Trough 3000-millimetre delivers exactly that: a long, deep feed trough that slots neatly against a feed fence, offers generous volume, and withstands the rough-and-tumble of yard life season after season. Building on the success of Bateman’s ever-popular 2500 mm model, this extended version adds half a metre in length and extra depth, giving producers welcome head-room when intakes spike or herd numbers grow.
Specifications
- Length: 3000mm
- Depth: 800mm
- Height: 700mm
These proportions represent a sweet spot: high enough to keep bedding out, yet low enough for weanlings to reach concentrate as they transition from creep rations.

The LM Bateman Big Bale Cradle elevates your forage, keeps it clean, and makes every mouthful count.
