You want to start using automation with poultry processing. But what is your idea with automation?

Saving labour or increasing your capacity and do you have enough life birds for your capacity?

Birds per year

The calculation is as follow:

Birds per hour X hours a day X days per week X weeks per year = total birds per year

We use the calculation: capacity X 8 hours a day X 5 days per week X 50 weeks/year.

250 birds per hour = 500.000 birds per year

500 birds per hour = 1.000.000 birds per years

1000 birds per hour = 2.000.000 birds per year

2000 birds per hour = 4.000.000 birds per year

For a capacity of 500bph, you need to have acces to 1.000.000/year. This results you need to have 7 farms of 25.000birds
