Kenya’s 30,000 Broiler Chicken Farming Success: A Zhengzhou Livi Machinery Service Story

In the evolving landscape of poultry farming in Kenya, scaling broiler chicken production with efficiency and cost-effectiveness remains a critical challenge. Recently, a major poultry farm in Kenya embarked on raising 30,000 broiler chickens, seeking a reliable and advanced farming infrastructure to meet both local demand and export ambitions. This case highlights how Zhengzhou Livi Machinery became an essential partner, delivering top-tier H-type broiler chicken battery cages and comprehensive services that transformed the client’s operations—a story that resonates with global poultry producers aiming to boost productivity and cut operational costs.

Understanding the Client’s Needs: Efficiency Meets Scale

The Kenyan farm approached Zhengzhou Livi Machinery with a clear yet ambitious goal: sustainably manage and optimize a population of 30,000 broiler chickens. The client required equipment that would maximize space utilization, ensure animal welfare, minimize labor input, and guarantee easy maintenance. Past experiences with conventional housing methods resulted in uneven growth rates and high mortality due to poor ventilation and hygiene failures.
Critical parameters included optimized feed conversion ratio (FCR), high stocking density without compromising bird health, and equipment resilient enough for Kenya’s tropical climate. The farm’s management also emphasized the importance of getting a turnkey solution—from cage design to logistics and installation.

Tailored Solutions: Zhengzhou Livi Machinery’s H-type Broiler Battery Cage System

Zhengzhou Livi Machinery’s team promptly proposed the state-of-the-art H-type broiler chicken battery cage system specifically engineered for large-scale commercial farms. Featuring stainless steel mesh floors and galvanized steel frames, the cages promote superior ventilation, waste separation, and easy cleaning. Each cage accommodates uniform bird density that encourages faster growth and reduced stress.
Key technical advantages included:

• Modular design enabling flexible expansion as the flock grows
• Automated feeding troughs and nipple drinkers for consistent nutrition and hydration
• Durability against corrosion in humid environments
• Optimized cage dimensions to enhance air circulation and minimize disease transmission
