The Benefits of ViperTouch for Poultry Farmers

ViperTouch is not just a climate control system; it is a comprehensive management tool that significantly improves poultry farming operations. Here are some key benefits:

1. Enhanced Bird Welfare and Productivity

Maintaining a consistent and comfortable climate is crucial for poultry health and performance. ViperTouch’s automated and adaptive control ensures optimal temperature, humidity, and air quality, reducing stress and promoting better growth rates. By adjusting ventilation and heating precisely, the system minimises the risk of diseases associated with poor air quality, such as respiratory infections.

2. Energy Efficiency and Cost Savings

With features like Dynamic MultiStep exhaust air control and integration with heat exchangers such as Earny 2, ViperTouch optimises energy consumption. By efficiently managing heating, cooling, and ventilation, farmers can reduce energy costs while maintaining ideal conditions for their flocks.

3. Comprehensive Data Monitoring and Analysis

ViperTouch records vital production parameters, including feed and water consumption, temperature fluctuations, and bird weights. This data allows farmers to make informed decisions, track performance trends, and implement corrective measures promptly. The integration of sensors measuring CO2, ammonia (NH3), and humidity ensures precise environmental control, further improving productivity.

4. Seamless Integration with BFN Fusion for Smarter Farming

One of ViperTouch’s most powerful features is its ability to connect with Big Dutchman’s BFN Fusion, a cloud-based farm management platform. BFN Fusion enhances remote monitoring and decision-making by providing:

• Real-Time Data Access: Farmers can monitor poultry house conditions from anywhere using smartphones, tablets, or computers.
• Automated Updates and Secure Data Storage: The system ensures all devices remain synchronised and securely stores historical data for trend analysis.
• Production Optimisation Tools: Analytical tools help farmers enhance efficiency, reduce waste, and increase profitability.
• Scalability for Any Farm Size: Whether managing a small family farm or a large-scale commercial operation, BFN Fusion grows with your needs.
