Introduction — LIVI Machinery: Building Reliable Poultry Solutions Worldwide
With over 13 years of experience in poultry farming equipment manufacturing, LIVI Machinery has helped over 1000+ poultry farms in 80+ countries achieve automation and efficiency.
From layer battery cages to complete automatic poultry farming systems, LIVI is known for its professional design, customized solutions, and reliable after-sales support.
One of our recent success stories is a 30,000 layers poultry project in Zambia, where the client adopted our H Type Layer Chicken Battery Cage System to modernize their farm operations. This project showcases how automation can transform egg production and reduce labor costs in Africa’s fast-growing poultry industry.
Project Overview — Layer Farming Cage System in Zambia
Location: Lusaka, Zambia
Capacity: 30,000 Layers
Equipment Type: H Type 4-Tier Layer Chicken Battery Cages
Poultry House Size: 75m × 14m × 4.2m
Goal: Increase egg production, improve management efficiency, and reduce manpower
Before choosing LIVI Machinery, the Zambian farmer managed about 12,000 layers manually. Challenges like feed waste, inconsistent egg production, and disease control prompted him to seek an automated layer farming solution.
After consultation with our technical team, he decided to upgrade to a 30000 Layers H Type Chicken Battery Cages System—a fully automated setup including feeding, drinking, manure removal, and egg collection.

Automation Implementation — Step-by-Step Installation
Design & Consultation
LIVI engineers analyzed the farm layout, wind direction, and land slope to design an efficient layer cage poultry farming system in Zambia.
The plan optimized airflow, manure collection, and lighting for better egg-laying performance.
Production & Quality Control
The H Type battery cages were produced using hot-dip galvanized steel, ensuring a 20+ year lifespan even under Zambia’s high humidity.
Shipping & Logistics
Equipment was packed in steel frames and shipped via container from China to Lusaka Port. LIVI’s logistics team provided full tracking updates.
On-site Installation
Two LIVI technicians supervised local workers during installation, completing the project within 45 days.
Training & Operation
After installation, LIVI provided operation manuals and training on automation systems — including feeding control, egg collection, and manure removal.
Results — From Manual Labor to Full Automation
Within three months of operation, the 30,000-layer farm achieved significant improvements:
| Performance Indicator | Before (Manual) | After (LIVI System) | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Egg Production Rate | 72% | 95% | +23% Increase |
| Labor Cost | $1,800/month | $600/month | -67% Reduction |
| Feed Efficiency | 2.3 kg feed/dozen eggs | 1.8 kg feed/dozen eggs | +22% Efficiency |
| Mortality Rate | 5.5% | 2% | -64% Drop |
The automated feeding and manure systems reduced disease spread and improved hygiene, while the egg collection line prevented shell damage.
The client reported an ROI (return on investment) within 14 months, proving that modern poultry systems bring long-term economic benefits.
