Abstract
The present invention comprises a method for cyclically controlling a poultry barn environment. It coordinates stimulation such as illumination, ventilation, sprinkling and temperature. At the commencement of the cycle, the lights are turned off, the ventilation is reduced to a normal rate and heaters are turned on to provide an optimum environment for the poultry's inactive phase. During the dark, inactive phase, a massive purge is implemented to reduce ambient dust. At the end of the dark phase, the lights are turned on, sprinklers are turned on and the temperature in the barn is reduced. The lights stimulate activity by the fowl. The sprinkling removes still more dust from the air.The reduction in temperature stimulates feeding. At the end of the illuminated, active phase, the lights are turned out and the cycle is repeated. By coordinating the stimulation, a healthier fowl and greater growth rate are thereby produced.
