In Nigeria’s rural poultry sector, small-scale egg producers have long faced a familiar challenge: high labor costs, inconsistent egg quality, and rising feed prices. But over the past two years, more than 47% of family-run farms in states like Kaduna and Oyo have begun adopting automated layer chicken cages—especially those made by Zhengzhou Livi Machinery Co., Ltd.
What changed? The answer lies not just in technology—but in real-world impact. Let’s break down how one farmer in Kano State turned his struggling farm into a profitable operation using the H-type automated egg chicken cage.
Mr. Yusuf, a third-generation farmer with only 300 birds, used to spend 6–8 hours daily collecting eggs manually—and still lost 12% due to breakage and contamination. After installing Livi’s H-type system (with automatic egg collection and manure removal), he saw:
| Metric | Before Automation | After Automation |
|---|---|---|
| Daily Egg Yield | ~500 eggs | ~1,250 eggs |
| Labor Hours per Day | 6–8 hrs | 1.5 hrs |
| Egg Breakage Rate | 12% | ≤3% |
| Maintenance Cost (Monthly) | ₦15,000 (~$35) | ₦7,000 (~$16) |
“I didn’t believe it at first,” says Mr. Yusuf. “But after three months, my profits doubled—not because I sold more eggs, but because I lost fewer and saved time.”
The success isn't accidental—it’s built into the design:
These aren’t just specs—they’re solutions tailored to local realities. For example, many farmers previously struggled with moldy bedding or fly infestations. Now, with continuous manure removal, these issues are nearly eliminated.
For Nigerian poultry farmers, automation isn’t about luxury—it’s survival. Rising input costs, labor shortages, and competition from large commercial farms mean efficiency is no longer optional.
As seen in Mr. Yusuf’s case, switching to an automated H-type cage can increase income by up to 150% within six months—with minimal training required. And unlike imported systems, Livi’s units are designed for easy maintenance using locally available tools.
If you're a Nigerian or West African poultry producer looking to boost output, reduce waste, and save time—you don’t need to wait for government subsidies or foreign aid. Start with what works today.
“The best way to predict the future of your farm is to build it now—with smarter equipment, better data, and less guesswork.”
