How does this tool account for heat stress?

The engine uses the Temperature-Humidity Index (THI) via `analyze_heat_stress_impact` to adjust water intake requirements based on environmental stress levels.

Can I plan for remote grazing locations?

Yes, you can use `recommend_storage_capacity` to determine the necessary tank volumes and safety buffers for off-grid or remote grazing sites.

Does it consider the water temperature?

Yes, `calculate_daily_intake` allows you to input the water temperature to account for its effect on animal intake.

This MCP server provides specialized calculation tools for livestock management. It uses ASABE and NRC standards to determine the exact water requirements for animals based on physiological and environmental factors. Use calculate_daily_intake to find the net free water needed per animal, estimate_peak_flow_requirements to design water delivery infrastructure, recommend_storage_capacity for remote grazing planning, and analyze_heat_stress_impact to evaluate how temperature and humidity drive water demand.
