Farm House Ventilation Poultry
In Collaboration with
An in-depth, highly implementable and practical ventilation management course aimed at anyone in the poultry industry, from farm assistant to production manager, wanting to increase their current knowledge with new innovations or learn key aspects to help manage their poultry house ventilation systems.
What You will Learn
The course covers all aspects of managing ventilation. Each module explores, in detail, the theory behind good ventilation practices and links them with bird physiology to help you manage ventilation more effectively no matter if you work with broilers or broiler breeders. Attendees should finish this course with an excellent understanding of the theory and practical implementation of ventilation. The knowledge gained on this course will enable attendees to implement changes as needed, to improve the bird’s environment and so its performance. Attendees will leave with a good knowledge of each of the three main ventilation stages, what they do and how they need to be managed for bird performance and welfare. Ventilation management will be linked back to bird physiology to give an in-depth understanding of the impact of ventilation on birds at every stage of the flock cycle. The course will also take a unique look at new technologies and how these can be applied to ensure future sustainability during climatic change.
Day 1
Fundamentals of Ventilation
-
Bird Physiology & Ventilation – gives an overview of bird physiology and the impact it has on ventilation and vice versa.
-
Principles of Ventilation – covers the reasons why we need to ventilate and how ventilation changes with bird age, detailing the essential principles of temperature, pressure, and humidity.
Practical Ventilation Techniques
Day 2
-
Minimum Ventilation – details the key aspects of minimum ventilation, its purpose, and how and when it should be used. Includes a practical session.
-
Transitional Ventilation – details the key aspects of transitional ventilation, its purpose, and how and when it should be used. Includes a practical session.
Day 3
Advanced Ventilation Strategies
-
Tunnel Ventilation – details the key aspects of tunnel ventilation, its purpose, and how and when it should be used. Includes a practical session.
-
Retrofitting and Ventilation – for bird welfare under increasingly adverse climate conditions how to retrofit open-sided housing and key watch-outs.
-
Key points of preventative maintenance – understanding key maintenance areas for maintaining ventilation.
Practical Sessions
The practical sessions will be conducted using a specially designed test house showing ventilation airflow patterns in detail and the effects of incorrect house pressure and speed.
