Our Egg Production Systems

Commercial broiler production in East Africa demands systems engineered for tropical conditions. Big Dutchman delivers turnkey broiler houses that achieve 97%+ survival rates through precision climate control, automated feeding, and integrated biosecurity — proven across operations from 5,000 to 100,000+ birds.

Our clients — including Kenchic, East Africas largest poultry integrator, and Farmers Choice — trust Big Dutchman systems to deliver consistent performance in Kenyas demanding climate. From Nairobi to Mombasa, our installations are engineered for the specific challenges of equatorial production: high ambient temperatures, humidity control, and reliable biosecurity in tropical environments.rn Africa is so passionate about the Big Dutchman Feed Mill solutions. A feed mill provides farmers with the opportunity to work with a tailored feed mix based on the most animal-effective and cost-effective ingredients available. In addition, feed mills provide greater farm security in terms of bio-hazard management, ingredient quality management and feed availability management.

Big Dutchman technology such as Big Farm Net empowers you with feed-level data from your Big Dutchman feed mill so that you can always ensure the availability of quality feed for your animals. With experience in East African countries since 1966 and global experience since 1938 Big Dutchman Feed Mills takes the best global feed mill technology and adapts it to support East African farmers taking climate, labor, feed ingredients and local infrastructure into account.

How Big Dutchman Layer Systems Create Value for Your Operation

Every Big Dutchman broiler production system is engineered as an integrated solution — not individual components, but a complete production environment designed to maximise bird welfare, feed conversion, and profit per cycle.

  • Key system components:
    Climate Control — AirMaster ventilation and evaporative cooling engineered for tropical heat up to 40 degrees C
  • Automated Feeding — FLUXX pan feeding for uniform flock growth and optimal feed conversion

Why farmers choose Big Dutchman

What working together looks like

1

Cleaning Home Grown Crops

Pigs and poultry are incredibly sensitive so, ensuring you have the right equipment to effectively clean the crops you want to use in your feed is important.

The Big Dutchman offers two different drum cleaners, which remove stones, sand, and large material from the crop.

2

Milling the crop into feed

Even distribution of ingredients is key to effective feed. Big Dutchman Hammer Mills are designed to achieve this by adding ingredients at different times during milling so all components reach a similar particle size. Farmers can choose a fine or more structured grind depending on the application. Dust filters help keep the feed hygienic. The design also builds in longevity, promoting even wear on screens and parts.

3

Mixing the feed

There is an exciting capacity to include unique combinations of ingredients into home-grown feed for optimal animal health and productivity. Ensuring your pigs and poultry receive an even mix of these ingredients is key to productivity results.

The Big Dutchman Dry Mixers provide farmers of any size, with accuracy and versatility by enabling an even distribution of cereals, soya, dry minerals, vitamins and fats throughout the feed.

The Big Dutchman's horizontal and vertical dry mixers are designed to be easily installed and accessed with low wear and short mixing times.
