Smart Slurry Aeration System

The safest and most cost-effective method of managing slurry in dairy, beef, sheep and pig farms globally

The Worldโ€™s First & Best Slurry Aeration System

DP invented the worldโ€™s first Slurry Aeration System, revolutionising slurry management for farmers. This innovative system also know as a slurry bubbler, automates slurry mixing, ensuring a consistently homogeneous and pumpable state without the need for labour or human intervention. It offers a safer, smarter, and more cost-effective solution, significantly reducing the reliance on chemical fertilisers and enhancing environmental sustainability in the dairy, beef, sheep and pig industries globally.

Each system is custom-designed for each storage facility. Regardless of the slurry density or type, the system is custom-configured to ensure optimum performance, leading to complete consistency of slurry and the even distribution of nutrients.

What Farmers Say About Us

โ€œHaving installed a Dairypower aeration system, we have seen a reduction in labour and fertiliser cost. The quality of our slurry is the same all year round, which means we can pump it anytime we wish.โ€

Mark and Caroline Davies, New House Farm, Wales

Award-winning dairy farmer Mark Davies, from Pembrokeshire, found that his Smart Slurry Aeration System brought tremendous safety benefits, along with significant cost savings in fertilisers, fuel and labour.

โ€œSince installing the Smart Manure Aeration System in our barn, it has completely transformed our operation. The system runs automatically, reducing labour, eliminating the need for extra water, and improving manure consistency. Weโ€™ve noticed fewer flies, better manure quality for our fields, and significant time savings. If we had known about this system earlier, we would have installed this bubbler from the start!โ€โ€

Gary Schotman, Schothorst Farms Ltd, Mildmay, Ontario.

Canadian Dairy Farmer Gary Schotman tells us about his Dairypower Smart Manure Aeration System that has been fitted in his under-slat storage tank in Mildmay, Ontario.

Got Questions? We Have Answers!

No. Our Smart Slurry Aeration System can run up to 105 lines from one pump unit and control box. This is usually plenty to cover multiple tanks if required from the one set up. With forethought and planning, the initial system would be installed with the best sized pump and controller to accommodate for future additional tanks to be connected โ€“ meaning not all tanks need to be completed straight away. This is perfect for retrofitting to older tanks if building a new storage facility.

Our systems are built to last. We have many systems (including our original test units) that are still running with original pipework, pump and control box for over 25 years.

No. Our Smart Slurry Aeration System keeps the slurry in the perfect state for extracting and spreading, at all times. The complete consistency of the slurry means there will be no blockages from solids and at no point would you be extracting just water. The last litre is the same as the first litre.

Yes. It has been noted that with our Smart Slurry Aeration System in place, on-farm slurry smells from ammonia and hydrogen sulphide are reduced, even when spreading.

The Smart Slurry Aeration System works on all densities of slurry, making it a must for any pig farmer using a slatted floor. The fluid consistency even from dense pig slurry, allows for easy extraction and so trouble-free storage.
