The article discusses the possibility of using solar air collectors for heating livestock buildings. The disposable amount of solar energy in the Samara region is determined during the winter months when the outdoor temperature drops below the critical level, at which biological heat release from animals does not compensate for heat loss through outdoor fences, and a defi cit of heat in the premises for their maintenance begins. The calculation of the heat output of the solar heating system and the degree of substitution of the required heat load is given using the example of a cowhouse. Based on the calculations performed, the feasibility of using the heat of solar energy in livestock buildings is estimated. Recommendations are given on the place of installation of solar collectors on the cowhouse.
