In the past two years, with the expansion of poultry breeding capacity in various places, many enterprises are facing the problem of "more chickens and less land, no land to expand". In order to improve the efficiency of breeding planning on the basis of existing land resources, models such as chicken cage breeding in the country and chicken raising in high-rise buildings have attracted more and more attention.
On May 27th, the series of activities sponsored by Xinmu Network, New Poultry Situation and National Chicken Culture Promotion Alliance came to Guangxi Rongxian Li's Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Li's Agriculture and Animal Husbandry") to lead tens of thousands of netizens to walk into the front line of breeding and explore new ideas, new models and new trends in the development of the industry.

Rongxian Li's Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Co., Ltd. is located in Licun Town, RongXian County, Guangxi Province, the three yellow chicken breeding company, the founder Li Yao since 1989, from scratch to the establishment of "Licun Li's Breeding Farm", and then in 2013 officially registered the company, after more than 30 years of hard work, step by step development and growth.
In addition, Li's Agriculture and Animal Husbandry has built a modern automated breeding center, and has successfully registered the trademark "Guangnan Huang", which has completely independent intellectual property rights, and has about 100,000 sets of supporting breeders. However, with the continuous improvement of the scale of poultry breeding, old breeding equipment and hardware facilities have become a constraint on the company's development. Coupled with the increasing pressure of environmental protection, Li's agriculture and animal husbandry are also facing a situation of no land to expand and no land to raise.
Lee's Agricultural and Animal Husbandry Headquarters
In order to develop better, Li's Agriculture and Animal Husbandry made up its mind to spend money in 2017 to build two building-style chicken coops in Yangcun Town, which is adjacent to Licun Town, and began to put into production in 2019, to do more exploration and development towards new breeding models, which is also the destination of this live broadcast to visit the building to raise chickens.

The "new model" helps to reduce costs and increase efficiency and seek development
Li's new "building chicken coop" is more than a dozen minutes away from Licun Town, which is only a few hundred meters away from the Guangdong border in a straight line. According to Li Zongjie, the new chicken coop covers a total area of about 1500 square meters, and the two chicken coops have a total of 12 production rooms, which can be divided into breeding houses, rooster coops, egg-laying hen coops, etc. according to their functions, and the maximum number of breeding chickens can reach 90,000 sets.

Compared with traditional farms, the model of building farming has advantages and disadvantages. Under the guidance of General Manager Li Zongjie, we observed in detail the breeding house, hen coop and some environmental control and manure cleaning systems for chickens in buildings.
Through live broadcasting, we can also see that building farming has the following advantages:
First of all, the most intuitive is that building breeding can achieve intensive land use, which is a very important influencing factor at the moment of "a place is difficult to find". Li Zongjie also said that raising chickens without land was the main factor in the company's decision to build a new building-style chicken coop.

Secondly, the building-type chicken breeding generally adopts the combination of automatic manure scraping and manual manure cleaning, while Li's Agriculture and Animal Husbandry adopts an advanced and scientific manure collection system to transport the chicken manure collected by the whole chicken coop directly to the manure treatment tank through the pipeline, so as to clean up and reduce the odor of the chicken coop in time.
Manure collection and cleaning system
In addition, the chicken coop can control the ventilation, lighting, cooling and warming adjustment of the chicken coop through facilities such as water curtains to ensure the survival rate of chicken seedlings. While improving the degree of mechanization, it can also save a lot of manpower costs, reduce costs and increase efficiency.
Environmental control system
However, at present, the national chicken building chicken breeding is still in the initial stage of development, and there are still many problems that need to be overcome. For example, the breeding density of chicken coops is large, and the concentration of harmful gases in the house is large, which also has higher requirements for the prevention and control of diseases. At the same time, due to the high cost of building breeding, many enterprises are discouraged. How much does it cost to build two new chicken coops like Lee's Farming?
Li Zongjie simply calculated a number: the whole building infrastructure needs 9 million, the purchase of facilities and equipment in the house is 2 million, plus 1 million other equipment such as elevators, the average cost of each chicken coop is about 750,000 yuan, and the total cost of the two chicken coops is as high as 12 million yuan!
Although the creation of the new chicken coop has encountered many ups and downs, in general, the completion of the new chicken coop has undoubtedly given Li's agriculture and animal husbandry a better development opportunity, and Li's agriculture and animal husbandry is also striving towards the goal of 200,000 sets of supporting breeding chickens!
Hand in hand with Li Village, we will jointly build an important national chicken breeding town
Guangxi Rong County Licun Town is a large chicken breeding town in Guangxi, Li's agriculture and animal husbandry is one of the more than 20 member enterprises of Rong County Licun Poultry Industry Association. According to Qin, president of the Licun Poultry Association, there have been chicken farms of a certain scale in the Licun area since the 1960s, and there have been more than 20 large-scale breeding enterprises in Licun since the development of Licun.
With the efforts of the member units of the Licun Poultry Association, the development of the national chicken in Licun area is now in the sky, as of now, the national chicken breeding stock in Licun Town is about 800,000 to 1 million birds, and the annual national chicken can reach 3 million birds, and Licun Town has also applied for the regional brand of "Licun Yellow Chicken", which is committed to creating a high-quality national chicken breeding town.

Due to the excellent quality of Licun yellow chicken breeds, coupled with the feeding of high-quality feed and water sources, Licun yellow chicken is welcomed by the consumer market. Hundreds of thousands of chickens are sold to the Wuzhou region, and a third of the broilers are sold to the Guangdong region.
