On dairy cattle sprinklers are used a lot. But also need fans, gotta have air flow or it will just turn into a sauna.

Guess I am still trying to figure out why sprinklers are not used more in the beef industry. Last week I asked and they said logistically not feasible to have fans and sprinklers for 30k head of cattle.

There are many mega dairies the milk that many or more and keep them ventilated either with tunnel ventilation and cool cells, cross ventilated barns etc.
