System and method for measuring feed conversion ratio of cage breeding poultry

Abstract

The invention discloses a system for measuring the feed conversion ratio of cage breeding poultry. The system comprises a poultry rearing cage, a quantitative feeding system, an individual weight monitoring system, a data relay, and a server; the quantitative feeding system is arranged on the outer side of the poultry rearing cage; the individual weight monitoring system is arranged in the poultry rearing cage; the data relay is respectively in signal connection with the quantitative feeding system and the individual weight monitoring system; and the server is arranged at a cloud end and is in signal connection with the data relay. According to the system for measuring the feed conversion ratio of cage breeding poultry, the poultry feed conversion ratio can be automatically measured in real time, labor cost and material cost are saved, the feed conversion ratio data can be obtained more accurately, and the timeliness is higher; feed can be accurately distributed according to the growth conditions of individual poultry, so that the growth of the poultry is more controllable; the labor intensity of feeders is relieved, and waste of feed is reduced; maintenance cost is low, and only poultry standing cross rods need to be replaced as required in use process; the use process is convenient and manual participation is not needed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of poultry and livestock breeding, in particular to a system and method for measuring the feed-to-meat ratio of caged poultry. Background technique [0002] Feed-to-meat ratio (FCR) refers to the amount of feed consumed by one kilogram of livestock and poultry gaining weight. It is an important indicator for evaluating feed remuneration and an important basis for preparing production plans and financial plans. A high feed-to-meat ratio means more feed is used, but less meat is grown; on the contrary, a low feed-to-meat ratio means less feed is used, but more meat is grown. [0003] In the prior art, when obtaining the feed-to-meat ratio of poultry, manual measurement and statistics of the weight of the poultry and the amount of feed eaten are usually used, and then the specific feed-to-meat ratio is further calculated. This method is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and requires staff to constantly measure body we...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] At present, there are generally three ways to feed poultry: one is to use a feeder trough or a feeder basin, pour the feed into it in a certain amount and feed it to the poultry. The labor intensity of the feeding staff of the device is high, the waste is serious, and it is difficult to ensure that other poultry can eat and achieve the purpose of precise quantitative feeding

The second is to use the crane to run on the trough. By adjusting the gap between the bottom of the trough and the bottom of the trough, the average amount of feed can be achieved. The disadvantages are also obvious, that is, the direct linear relationship between the size of the gap and the amount of feed is not very accurate, especially for feed particles. The difference in size increases the inaccuracy of the accuracy, and at the same time, it is impossible to avoid the interference between the feeding of the breeding birds, and it is difficult to ensure the needs of the breeding birds.

The third is to add a high-precision scale to the feeding box of each individual, but one scale and one standard also increase the randomness of the comparison, especially under the influence of the longitudinal wind in the chicken house and other environments, the scale with a small range will follow the wind. Drift also affects the accuracy of the scale

At this time, the staff needs to replace the weighing device, which increases the labor intensity on the one hand, and increases the feeding cost on the other hand.
