## Description

This MCP server provides specialized tools for livestock management and infrastructure planning. It helps producers ensure animal welfare by calculating precise physical access requirements using `get_space_requirements`. It also manages hydraulic planning through `calculate_hydraulic_capacity` to ensure water supply meets peak demand, and evaluates environmental safety with `assess_freezing_risk` to prevent equipment failure in cold climates. For a complete overview, use `get_system_summary` to generate a consolidated report of all requirements.

## Tools

### assess_freezing_risk
Evaluates if the system design is vulnerable to freezing in cold environments

### calculate_hydraulic_capacity
Calculates the necessary flow rate and tank replenishment speed

### get_space_requirements
Determines how much physical access space is needed for a specific group of animals

### get_system_summary
Provides a consolidated overview of all calculated requirements for a livestock setup

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
How much trough space do I need for 50 cattle weighing 500kg each?
```

**Response:** 
```
For 50 cattle at 500kg each, you require 2500 cm of total linear trough space.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Will my water system freeze if the temperature is -5°C with a flow rate of 10 L/min?
```

**Response:** 
```
The risk level is high. It is recommended to use insulated troughs or water heaters to prevent freezing.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the flow rate for a 500L peak demand over 30 minutes.
```

**Response:** 
```
The required flow rate is 16.67 L/min.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does this tool determine space requirements?**
The `get_space_requirements` tool uses species-specific biological standards to calculate either linear trough length or the number of animals per nipple or cup.

**Can I check if my water system will freeze in winter?**
Yes, the `assess_freezing_risk` tool evaluates the risk level based on your expected ambient temperature and the calculated flow rate.

**What information do I need for hydraulic calculations?**
To use `calculate_hydraulic_capacity`, you need the peak water demand in liters, the duration of that peak period, and your total tank volume.
