Whether it comes from a well, a cistern or a municipal source, the water your birds are drinking is paramount to their well being. A chicken is 70% water. Referred to as the “forgotten” nutrient, water is not only essential for nearly every bodily function of a bird, it is consumed nearly twice as much as feed. It’s estimated that for every kilogram of feed a bird ingests, it will ingest 1.7 to 2 kilograms of water.
Despite this fact, water quality is often taken for granted. Water is involved in every aspect of poultry metabolism. It plays a vital role in regulating body temperature, food digestion, and elimination of body wastes. At normal temperatures, chicks and chickens consume at least twice as much water as feed. When heat stress occurs, water consumption doubles, and can even quadruple. A safe and adequate supply of water is essential for efficient poultry production.
According to Canadian Poultry Magazine, “smart agriculture is the combination of precision agriculture and big data to provide livestock producers with online, continuous and automatic monitoring of animals and their environment to support optimal management”.
Livestock producers need to provide management with optimal support for monitoring both the animals and their environment. The data delivery provides the metrics that enable the producers to generate higher efficiency and productivity.
