Farmer Automatic of America Inc products

Almost unchanged for 30 years – the economic Farmer Automatic rearing cage. This battery, equipped with all unique Farmer Automatic features, is an animal-friendly and economical rearing system for layer pullets. Plastic coated, rectangular wire mesh on cage floors allows safe rearing of pullets without the need for additional floor matting in the first day of growing cycle. Feed access slots are adjustable to fit the size of pullets from day one, yet they are unable to slip into the feed trough. If pullets are not crowded and are provided adequate cage area, they will form small groups which results in a more uniform bird size.

Windrow composting in high-rise poultry or hog houses is an old process made better with a Compost Cat. The Cat is driven down each row picking up the substrate, mixing and breaking up large particles, and placing it in the same line. This process is essential for composting, fly control, and eliminating chemical costs. By creating clean tall rows of substrate, an efficient composting environment is formulated, containing heat and maximizing aeration.

The Compost Method; The Compost-A-Matic is a mixing vessle that moves through a channel of substrate. Mixing paddles stir material with a purpose of eliminating methane gas and hydrogen sulfide odors. The resulting compost product is a pathogen and seed-free organic material that will not revert back to raw manure and that has retained nutrients for valuable agricultural use.

Automatic feeding system: The Farmer Automatic V-Link chain feeding system has been used in farms around the world for over 30 years. Our design places the chain in a trough outside the cage, keeping it free from debris and allowing easy access for inspection and management. The long-lasting, wear-resistant chain distributes the feed evenly and, unlike some spiral feeding mechanisms, there are no injuries or mortalities.

Automatic feeding system: The Farmer Automatic chain feeding system is worldwide in operation. The V-link feed chain running in the feed trough outside the cage is extremely effective, easy to handle and reliable since more than 30 years. The long-lasting, wear resistant chain distributes the feed evenly.

The Farmer Automatic overhead dryer provides an enormous climatic improvement for people and animals in their farming system with minimized energy, investment and operating costs. It also solves the problem of manure removal and drying in an efficient and economically viable manner. The automatic system is placed in the poultry house over the system rows.

The Farmer Automatic Drying System is a flexible tray dryer specially-developed for evaporation drying of liquid manure, digestates from biogas plants and further regenerative sources of energy. The resulting biomass can be easily stored, transported and also used as a natural fertilizer suitable for export.

The cushioned rods – in contrast to standard chain systems -  in the electronically-controlled rod conveyor have roller bearings and run totally smoothly. This allows the roller chain to transport the eggs evenly, gently and with fewer crushed and hairline-cracked eggs whilst saving personnel and time.

Automatic belt manure removal. The transverse manure belts at the end of the cage rows accept the manure extracted from the farming systems and transport it immediately out of the poultry house. This simplifies cleaning and improves the climate in the poultry house.
