Broiler Farm Drinking Water Testing – Chemistry
Poultry can be very sensitive to the chemistry of water with some chemical elements causing diuretic or laxative effect and others upsetting the digestive tract or be unpalatable to the birds causing bitter and unpleasant taste which can slow crop growth.
This product is designed to measure all the parameters which can effect flock performance to give you an idea of potential issues so you can make an informed decision whether to look at filtration or supplementation of the drinking water. Feedwater Ltd is a water treatment company and can assist with both water disinfection and filtration equipment.
