Wilmar Acres, Canada

The 31^st of March 2020 John placed the first crop in his two new DACS ventilated broiler barns. At this time Covid had shut down everything so on-line supervision from DACS was the only option.

”DACS were on-line and checked if everything were tied together correctly and they could actually do fault-finding and point out if a sensor did not feed the proper signal to the ACS6 controller. This detailed on-line functionality check of the entire DACS system gave us ease of mind and a smooth start when the day-old chicks arrived,” says John.

”We always have good litter and nice climate during the cold season in the DACS barns and this summer we had a cocktail of big birds, high humidity and temperatures reaching 95°F (35°C). This would normally be of concern to us but even under these stressful conditions, and birds 35 days of age, predicted daily gain were maintained in our two DACS ventilated barns. I think this frames in well the superiority of the DACS system over my cross ventilation systems,” notes John.
