(Baonghean.vn) - Raising livestock and poultry on farms, if there is no solution to reduce heat in the barn, it will be very hot in the summer, making it difficult for livestock to grow. Some farm owners in the province have installed an effective and economical heat-resistant system for livestock.

Mr. Phan Van Tuan, in hamlet 6, Dien Thai commune, Dien Chau district, has a pig farm with a scale of raising 80 pigs/batch. For the past 2 years, he has invested in installing a cooling system using fan and steam technology in a closed house, which is very effective in the summer (In the photo: Mr. Phan Van Tuan introduces the water exchange system using cooling panels installed outside the pig farm) |
 |
Water is pumped onto the cooling pad, flowing like raindrops, so the fan can easily draw water vapor into the pig farm. The water source operates on a circular principle so it does not waste water. |
 |
Opposite the cooling plate are two fans using a 1.5 KW electric motor to suck steam into the pig pen to cool it down, so the temperature in the pig pen is always 30 - 32 degrees Celsius, the pigs grow well. Mr. Tuan said that the cost to install this cooling system is about 30 million VND. |

Mr. Nguyen Viet Tu in Quang Nhan hamlet, Quang Thanh commune, Yen Thanh district currently raises 7,500 broiler chickens in 3 barn systems. To keep the chickens cool in the summer, he covers each barn with foam or canvas, and installs a water spray nozzle system on the roof. By doing so, the temperature in the chicken coop is reduced by 4 - 5 degrees Celsius. |

Dien Trung Commune, Dien Chau District currently has 168 farms raising broiler chickens and egg-laying chickens according to VietGAP standards. To keep the chickens cool, most of them have installed a water spraying system on the roof of the barn. On hot days, the spraying system operates from 9am to 4pm.
 |
Chicken farms are also installed with automatic water supply systems, ensuring there is always enough clean water for the chickens. |

The chicken farm of Mr. Bui Van Tinh's family, hamlet 11, Dien Trung commune has a scale of raising 3,000 broiler chickens/batch. In addition to installing a water spraying nozzle system on the roof and closing the ceiling inside, it also uses industrial fans, so the temperature in the chicken coop is always at 30 - 35 degrees Celsius, the chickens still grow well in the summer. |
