Research on the Critical Role of Managing Clean Water
While sensors and robotics often grab the headlines, the most critical technology in the barn might be from the chemistry flowing through the water lines.
This episode of The Georgia Tech Research podcast features Mary Catherine Foy, Director of Technical Services at Proxy Clean Products, discussing the critical role of water management in poultry houses. Foy emphasizes the importance of clean water for bird health, noting that birds consume twice as much water as feed. She highlights the vulnerability of water lines during the first two weeks of a new flock, when microbial counts peak. Foy recommends daily water treatment, regular flushing, and cleaning water lines between flocks. She also addresses the challenges of antibiotic-free production, which revealed weaknesses in water treatment programs.
