Case Study: Upgrade Ethiopia Poultry Farm Equipment



In 2025, a commercial poultry farm in Debre Zeit, Ethiopia, decided to fully modernize its operations.
The farm housed 15,000 broilers, and management faced high mortality rates of 12% and a feed conversion ratio of 2.2.

Step 1: Climate Control Installation
Automated ventilation, heating, and humidity systems were installed.
IoT sensors provided real-time alerts on temperature and ammonia levels, reducing mortality to 4%.

Step 2: Battery Cage Transition
Traditional deep litter systems were replaced with 4-tier battery cages.
Bird density per cell increased while ensuring compliance with welfare standards.

Step 3: Precision Feeding Implementation
Automatic auger feeders were integrated with IoT monitoring.
Feed wastage decreased by 18%, and growth rates improved significantly.

Step 4: Solar-Hybrid Energy Integration
A 25 kWp solar-hybrid system powered ventilation fans, LED lighting, and feeding motors.
The farm achieved 50% monthly energy cost reduction and zero downtime during grid failures.

Step 5: Manure Management & Biosecurity
Automated manure belts were installed with scheduled IoT monitoring.
Ammonia levels dropped below 10 ppm, improving air quality and flock health.
