Chicken Broiler and Egg Production
Intensive animal production systems involving housing of animals and high density living space often create issues around animal health and odor problems with the associated manure accumulation.
EM technology can be great tool for these intensive animal systems, and allows the management of these systems with reduction in health issues, in odor issues and can improve feed conversion efficiencies.
Key areas of applications in Broiler and Egg production:
Odor Control
-
Adding EM-A at 1 litre per cubic metre of manure, by dosing the sumps and holding tanks
-
Spraying the bedding and housing areas, under cages with EM-A at 1% weekly
-
After mucking out, and between batches of animals, spray all housing surfaces as above
Testomonial
Fred Haskins, Farmer NSW, Intensive egg production (November 2006)
“By adding EM to water and feed, will not only improve the performance of the chickens by its intake but the atmosphere created by the use of EM will improve the environment in which chickens are housed resulting in less respiratory problems as well as reducing the likely hood of foul cholera”
“By adding Bokashi to the feed ration we are saving approx AUD20 per tonne as a result of better feed conversion ratio”
“Trials at Beijing Agricultural University showed a decrease of up to 70% of ammonium levels by adding EM to the water and Bokashi to the feed”
