Abstract :

Poultry farming till now is done manually so farmers are incapable for getting the maximum benefits. Many years ago the feeding of whole cereals to chickens, as a scratch feed or part of a complete diet, was the normal accepted practice. With the growth of intensive poultry production, automatic feeding systems, employing for the most part full-fed complete diets, were adopted as the method of choice for feeding. We also have to ensure the environmental conditions like humidity and temperature control as required. Control and monitoring of environmental parameters inside a Poultry farm, so as to ensure complete care of chickens is one of the major objectives of the work. The objective is achieved through the use of sensor based technology. The Poultry Farming through automation using PLC has to form the Environmental Controlled Poultry sheds. These Environmental Controlled Poultry sheds are controlled 24 hours through automation. Due to automation wastage of time will be avoided. The feed to gain ratio is enhanced with precise nutrient feeding rather than a full-feeding program. It will provide optimum output with decreasing the human efforts and also human errors.
