   Maybe, but I've never heard of it before, either as idea or as an   
   implementation. So maybe it's impractical, or no one had thought of it before.   
      
   One thing though, the greenhouses over here are usually much larger than the   
   stables that house a couple of hundred cows, for the average cow farm. So the   
   energy in the form of warmth that can be harvested from a stable is probably   
   way to little to heat an average greenhouse...   
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
