Retrofit

If you’re ready to update your current poultry farm, a poultry house retrofit can significantly improve the operation of your farm. Retrofits can include the installation of new feeders, better controllers, ventilation upgrades and improvements to lighting and energy-efficiency.

Technology is at the center of many retrofit projects. New technology makes it easier to maintain houses and optimize bird production. Some of the technological upgrades that you can make to your farm include new feeders, ventilation upgrades, and improved controllers. All of these work to your benefit by helping ensure proper health and nutrition. Not only will this keep you compliant with regulations, but it will also ensure that your birds reach an optimal weight in the shortest amount of time.

When you spend the money to retrofit today, you ensure that you have a current business in the future — one that is relevant and producing at an efficient rate. The more efficient your business is, the more profit you will make over the long haul.
