LIVI H Type Layer Farming Cages for 20,000 Chickens Poultry Farm in Uganda
2025-10-27
Learn how LIVI Machinery helped a Ugandan farm successfully raise 20,000 layers using H-type layer farming cages with automatic feeding, egg collection, and manure removal systems
1. Uganda’s Growing Poultry Industry and Modernization Needs
Uganda’s poultry industry has grown rapidly in recent years as the demand for eggs and poultry products continues to rise. Farmers across the country are moving from small-scale backyard systems to commercial poultry houses with higher efficiency and productivity.
However, managing tens of thousands of laying hens requires more than just space — it demands automation, hygiene, and reliable housing systems. Recognizing this need, a Ugandan poultry farm partnered with LIVI Machinery to build a modern 20,000-layer egg production facility equipped with H type layer farming cages and a full set of automatic poultry equipment.
2. Project Background: Building a 20,000 Layers Poultry Farm
The client, located near Kampala, Uganda, aimed to expand from a small 5,000-layer farm to a fully automated 20,000-layer commercial operation.
Before the upgrade, the farm faced several challenges:
- High labor costs due to manual feeding and egg collection
- Poor manure management causing odors and disease risks
- Inconsistent egg production due to uneven feeding and ventilation
To overcome these challenges, the farm chose LIVI’s H-type layer cage system, known for its automation, space efficiency, and durability — ideal for tropical climates and large-scale poultry production.

3. LIVI’s Solution: H-Type Layer Farming Cages for 20,000 Chickens
LIVI Machinery designed and supplied a complete H-type layer cage system tailored for 20,000 laying hens. The system includes automatic feeding, drinking, egg collection, and manure removal components that ensure efficient management and stable production.
(1) Compact Design & High Stocking Density
The vertical, multi-tier H-type structure allows high-density rearing in limited space. The Ugandan farm was able to house 20,000 layers within a smaller building footprint, reducing construction costs while maximizing capacity.
(2) Automatic Feeding and Drinking System
The automatic chain feeding system delivers precise amounts of feed to each cage row, ensuring uniform nutrition and minimizing waste. The nipple drinking system guarantees clean, consistent water supply.
(3) Automatic Egg Collection System
Eggs roll gently onto collection belts and are automatically delivered to a centralized point. This system significantly reduces breakage rates and labor intensity, allowing smoother and faster egg handling.
(4) Automatic Manure Removal System
Each cage tier is equipped with a manure belt that automatically conveys waste out of the poultry house. This system improves hygiene, reduces ammonia levels, and creates a healthier environment for both workers and birds.
(5) Durable Materials for Long Lifespan
LIVI’s cages are made from hot-dip galvanized steel, resistant to rust and corrosion, perfectly suited for Uganda’s humid climate. With proper maintenance, the system can last 15–20 years.
4. Installation and Technical Support by LIVI
LIVI Machinery sent a professional engineering team to Uganda to provide on-site installation and training. The entire installation process for the 20,000-layer system took less than three weeks, including electrical connections and system calibration.
During installation, LIVI’s technicians trained local farm staff on daily management, equipment maintenance, and emergency troubleshooting. Even after installation, the farm continues to receive remote technical support and spare parts supply from LIVI’s international service center.
5. Project Results: Improved Productivity and Efficiency
Within the first few months of operation, the Ugandan farm reported significant improvements:
- Egg production rate increased by 9%, reaching over 95% laying performance.
- Feed conversion ratio improved, reducing overall feed cost.
- Labor cost dropped by more than 60%, thanks to automation.
- The poultry house remained clean and odor-free due to automatic manure removal.
“LIVI’s automatic system transformed our farm,” said Mr. Kato, the farm owner.
“Managing 20,000 chickens has never been this easy. The egg collection system saves hours every day, and the air quality in the house is much better now.”
