Boosting revenue per broiler cycle

New Farms performed the complete installation of a construction project as well as all the climate control installations

An example of the company’s more recent projects was accomplished at a poultry farm, La Carrasca, where New Farms performed the complete installation of a construction project as well as all the climate control installations. Poultry farm La Carrasca S.L. is situated in Villarrasa in the province of Huelva, southwestern Spain and is producing broilers. The farm encompasses two buildings of 135 m by 12 m and houses 32,000 chickens in each structure. La Carrasca’s first broiler house, built in 2006, was equipped with fans and evaporative cooling panels of a competing brand. When the time had come for the construction of a second house three years later, La Carrasca hired New Farms for the comprehensive project, who thereby specified and installed Munters climate control system.

Efficient cooling with minimum power consumption

The installation encompasses 14 pcs. of Euroemme® EM50 (1.5 hp) as well as 135 m of CELdek® evaporative cooling pads, virtually covering one of the long side walls of the broiler house and ensuring efficient cooling at a minimum power consumption level. With the same dimensions and same number of animals inside, the new built structure could easily be benchmarked with the first one built containing equipment of a competing brand. The house with Munters equipment gave production results far more favorable than in the first house using equipment from another manufacturer.
