Energy-efficient poultry equipment
Next to comprehensive information on best practices for efficient broiler management and suitable equipment the German poultry expert also touched on the topic of energy efficiency. This issue currently plays an important role among Iranian broiler producers, and for good reason. In the next years to come the Iranian government is going to cut gradually back on subsidies. Therefore, the farm managers present were highly interested in detailed information pertaining to this issue. „The development of energy-efficient equipment has already been an important field of activity with Big Dutchman for a long time“ said André Mofid, explaining the sound expertise the German world market leader has been accumulating in this regard.The broiler cage AviMax which turned out to be of particular interest to the participants is one of the examples: The main feature of AviMax is the easy-to-use tilting floor that facilitates the moving-out process. It allows for a low overall height of the installation while providing maximum headroom in the bird area. This makes for low energy and building costs, higher stocking densities, and optimum air exchange.
