Chickens don’t complain, but their growth tells the truth. In modern poultry farming, success depends less on luck—and more on climate control, automation, and efficiency. That’s where automatic poultry sheds come in.
Why Poultry Automation Is a Game-Changer
Bangladesh’s poultry sector feeds 20+ crore people, yet most farms still rely on manual work, inconsistent ventilation, and outdated methods. As land shrinks and feed prices rise, only automation keeps margins alive.
Automatic sheds offer:
- Better feed-to-weight ratio (FCR)
- Faster growth, less mortality
- Controlled temperature and ventilation
- Lower labor costs
- Biosecurity protection (disease control)
Types of Automatic Poultry Sheds
| Shed Type | Suitable For | Bird Capacity | Key Features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tunnel Ventilated Shed | Broilers | 10,000–40,000 | Cooling pads, exhaust fans, foggers |
| Layer Cage System | Egg Layers | 10,000–1,00,000 | Automatic feeding, egg collection, manure belts |
| Environment Controlled Shed | All Types | 10,000+ | Temperature & humidity sensors, alarms |
Each type boosts efficiency and ensures consistent growth regardless of weather.
Sample Budget: 40,000 Bird Broiler Tunnel Shed
| Item | Estimated Cost (BDT) |
|---|---|
| Land & Earth Work (1 Acre) | 45,00,000 |

| Automatic Feeding & Drinking Line | 30,00,000 |
| Fogging, Cooling Pads & Sensors | 18,00,000 |
| Generator & Electrical Setup | 15,00,000 |
| Civil Works & Drainage | 12,00,000 |
| Biosecurity Setup (fencing, footbath) | 5,00,000 |
| Office, Store, Water Supply | 10,00,000 |
| Working Capital (1 Cycle) | 30,00,000 |
| Total Project Cost | 2,85,00,000 |
Per Cycle Duration: 35–42 days
Expected Net Profit/Cycle: 6–8 lakh BDT
Yearly Net Profit (5–6 cycles): 35–45 lakh BDT
Payback Period: 3 years or less
Why Automation Pays Off
Manual sheds can’t handle heat stress or feed inconsistency. That means:
- Higher mortality during summer
- Uneven bird weight at sale time
- More antibiotics & medical cost
- Stress on labor & hygiene
With automation, one skilled person can manage 40,000 birds—with healthier growth and lower input cost.
