Heat stress in poultry is closely linked to temperature-humidity index (THI). A THI-based early warning model enables farms to act before birds suffer.
The model defines four risk levels: THI < 74 (safe), 74–78 (caution), 79–83 (danger), and > 83 (emergency). Each threshold triggers specific actions—from increasing ventilation to activating cooling pads and adjusting feed schedules.
Field application on 20,000-bird houses showed that using graded alerts reduced heat-related mortality by 25–30% and improved feed intake during hot spells. The system integrates with standard environmental controllers and requires only temperature and humidity sensors.
This practical, low-cost tool turns climate data into actionable farm decisions, making it valuable for tropical and subtropical regions.

What Scale Makes Automation Most Cost-Effective? A Study on the Size Threshold for Floor Rearing Equipment Payback
For floor rearing farms, automation becomes cost-effective when scale passes a certain threshold. Using a 12–24 month payback benchmark, analysis shows that 10,000 birds per house is the minimum viable scale for automated feeding systems. Below 8,000 birds, labor savings do not offset equipment costs. At 15,000–20,000 birds, payback drops to 12–18 months, and automated ventilation becomes…

Manual Feeding vs Precision Feeding Systems in Poultry Farming: Efficiency, Cost, and Feed Conversion Comparison
Feed management is one of the most critical factors affecting productivity and cost efficiency in poultry farming. Traditionally, manual feeding has been widely used due to its simplicity and low initial investment. However, with the development of automation technology, precision feeding systems are increasingly replacing manual operations in modern poultry houses. Manual feeding relies heavily…

Quantitative Assessment of Dynamic Feed Adjustment in Reducing Overfeeding and Underfeeding
Dynamic feed adjustment tailors daily feed amounts to match broilers’ actual growth curves and real-time intake patterns. This study quantifies its effect on reducing overfeeding and underfeeding in a 10,000‑bird flock. Overfeeding occurs when feed supply exceeds birds’ needs, increasing feed conversion ratio (FCR) and fat deposition. Underfeeding limits growth and causes flock unevenness. Using…
