  • 💧FACTSHEET: Misting: A Solution to Reduce Heat Stress in Poultry Houses 🐔☀️ Heat stress is a major challenge in poultry farming, especially as temperatures rise. But did you know that misting can effectively reduce heat stress and improve broiler welfare? Misting systems lower the temperature in poultry houses by dispersing fine water droplets into the air, creating a cooling effect through evaporation. This method not only helps maintain a comfortable environment for broilers but also supports better growth performance and overall health. 🌡️🐤 📋 Discover the key benefits of misting in our latest factsheet: ✔️ How misting works to combat heat stress in poultry houses. ✔️ Practical tips for implementing misting systems on your farm. ✔️ The positive impact on animal welfare and productivity. 🔗 Learn more by reading the full factsheet here: https://lnkd.in/d4Pq6bHz Together, let’s create sustainable and comfortable environments for broilers, even in hot weather! 🌍 #BroilerNet #HeatStress #PoultryFarming #AnimalWelfare #SustainableFarming #Innovation
