Addressing Ethiopia’s Small-Scale Poultry Challenges with Livi Machinery’s High-Efficiency H-Type Layer Chicken Cage

Across Ethiopia, small-scale family poultry farmers have struggled with low productivity, unpredictable egg quality, and challenges in maintaining the health of their layer hens. Traditional open-range or ground-level coop systems often limit the birds’ welfare and increase vulnerability to disease, leading to reduced egg yields and inconsistent income for households reliant on poultry farming.

These farmers face acute difficulties optimizing space and managing labor costs, often lacking access to durable infrastructure tailored for local climate and cultural conditions. As a result, many small poultry farmers feel trapped in a cycle of low efficiency and uncertain returns.

Real-World Impact Backed by Data and Testimonials

Farmers in the Oromia region who adopted the H-type layer cages reported significant improvements within their first six months of use. One poultry farmer, Amanuel Tesfaye, reflects:

\n\"Since switching to Livi’s H-type cages, my hens are healthier, and I have increased my egg production from around 120 eggs per month to nearly 150. The automated system also frees me from daily manual chores, giving me more time to focus on other farm tasks.\" \n

Data collected across 50 farms using these cages showed an average 18% increase in egg yield and a 25% decrease in mortality rates compared to traditional systems. These promising statistics underscore the cages’ effectiveness in supporting sustainable smallholder poultry farming in Ethiopia’s unique farming conditions.
