H Frame Layer Battery Cage System for 30,000 Chickens Commercial Layer Farm in Zambia
Project Overview
In early 2025, a commercial poultry farm in Zambia partnered with LIVI Machinery to build a high-efficiency layer production facility for 30,000 laying hens. The farm adopted the H Frame Layer Battery Cage System to ensure large-scale production with minimal labor and maximum operational stability. The solution was tailored to suit the regional climate, modern management requirements, and the customer’s long-term expansion plan.

LIVI provided a comprehensive design, equipment supply, and installation support service, enabling the Zambian client to complete a closed chicken house equipped with fully automated systems.
