However, there's another trough on the other side of the
barn which is equally dangerous but I can't cover as it's used by the
cattle in the adjacent field. Has anyone any suggestions on how to make
it safe for owls?

Make some steps in the trough at one end, using housebricks.

I haven't seen a live one in water, but I suspect a fledgling owl can't
swim at all, and so would be unlikely to find an exit ramp unless it
happened to land right by it. Still, I'll try something like this unless
I can think of something better.
