The EU will ban conventional cages for laying hens and broilers by 2027. This regulation forces farms to switch to cage‑free systems, primarily floor rearing and aviaries. Consequently, demand for floor rearing equipment—feeders, drinkers, litter management, and ventilation—has surged.
Market analysts estimate that the transition affects over 300 million hens in Europe alone. Replacement cycle typically spans 3–5 years, meaning peak equipment sales will occur between 2025 and 2028. However, policy spillover to other regions extends the boom. In the US, several states (e.g., California, Michigan) have passed similar cage‑free laws, while large food retailers globally commit to cage‑free supply chains.
Thus, the “policy dividend” for floor rearing equipment will likely continue beyond 2030, driven by lagging adopters, retrofit demand, and emerging markets following Europe’s lead. Suppliers should prepare for sustained growth, not a short‑term spike.

How to Improve Broiler Feed Conversion Ratio: The Synergy of Precision Feeding and Smart Environmental Control
Feed conversion ratio (FCR) is the most critical metric in broiler production—feed accounts for 60–70% of total costs. Improving FCR by just 0.1 can save over 6 tons of feed per 10,000 birds annually. This article examines how precision feeding and smart environmental control work together to achieve this gain.
