Smart Environmental Monitoring in Poultry Farming

This case study showcases how digital adoption transformed livestock management and poultry farming at Cahaya Nurkasih Sdn Bhd.

Problems

  • Inability to monitor poultry 24/7 leads to undetected heat or cold stress.
  • High humidity levels cause rapid disease spread within poultry houses.
  • Most losses are only discovered the next day when it is too late to intervene.

Solutions

  • Deployment of IoT sensors to track temperature, humidity, and light.

  • Continuous real-time data collection from within the poultry house.

  • Automated system sends immediate alerts for quick intervention.

Value Creation

  • Prevents the standard 3–5% loss in damages caused by heat stress.

  • Significantly improves overall farm productivity and operational profitability.
