Description
The poultry research barn at Raumberg-Gumpenstein is a versatile research facility designed to conduct a variety of studies with both fattening poultry and laying hens. This multi-purpose barn can be adapted for different poultry types, making it suitable for a wide range of research applications. The barn is equipped with continuous video monitoring to track animal behaviour and a gas measurement system to monitor emissions during experiments. In addition, the facility allows for regular weighing of the animals, providing data for feed efficiency and growth rate studies. These capabilities support research aimed at improving animal welfare, optimising poultry production, and minimising environmental impact.
What could be offered through this facility?
This facility enables the collection of high-quality data for developing health monitoring systems, calibration of computer vision technologies, and integration of these insights with in-barn gas concentration measurements and emission analyses.
