Covering fruits with polythene bags prevents them from being damaged by pests.
However, the bags should has some holes to allow aeration inside it.
This is one of the best ways to control crop pests especially birds & insects.

❓⁉️⁉️ This is How to Construct a Poultry House👇

Commercial chicken farming demands expertise, understanding, and unwavering commitment for success. Getting your poultry housing right is crucial for laying a solid foundation for your venture. Here's a handy checklist to guide you through poultry house construction:

🌟 Provide Comfort: Ensure your poultry house offers a comfortable environment shielding birds from weather extremities like rain, wind, and direct sunlight.

🌟 Spaciousness: Allocate adequate space based on stocking density:

Layers: 1m² for 6 birds
Broilers: 1m² for 11 birds

🌟 Ventilation: Opt for an open-sided house with east-west orientation to allow natural airflow. Avoid direct sunlight exposure.

🌟 Structure: Construct a rectangular-shaped house with a wall not exceeding three feet in height on the longer side. Opt for materials like stones, iron sheets, or bricks for durability.

🌟 Mesh Matters: Use a small gauge chicken wire mesh to prevent entry of wild birds, dogs, and rodents. Consider a plastic-coated mesh for longevity.

🌟 Roofing: Choose a reflective surface for the roof and ensure proper pitch for ventilation. Maintain adequate gap between birds and roof to prevent heat stress.

🌟 Flooring: floors should be ideal for easy cleaning and disinfection.

🌟 Hygiene Measures: Install a foot-bath at the entrance and clear vegetation around the pen to deter rodents. Keep the feed store separate to minimize rodent attraction.

🌟 Isolation: Construct the house in isolated areas to minimize contamination risks.

🌟 Ventilation Management: Optimal ventilation is crucial for heat and moisture regulation, oxygen supply, and air quality improvement. Open curtains for airflow during warm weather and close them for warmth during cold spells.

🌟 Safety: Fence the area and keep doors locked to prevent entry of stray animals and visitors.

DID YOU KNOW?
Vertical farms use up to 99% less land and 95% less water than traditional farming?

With the world’s population expected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050, #verticalfarming is a critical step toward ensuring food security and reducing the environmental impact of agriculture.

Last month, I had an opportunity to visit Vertical farm demonstration initiated by @FAORwanda's office and I am proud to be part of a movement that's changing the way we farm.

With the potential to reduce agricultural land use by up to 80%, vertical farming is paving the way for eco-friendly #UrbanAgriculture.

Let's revolutionize how we utilize urban spaces, using nutrient-rich water instead of soil.

For years, farming used to be 'vibes & Inshallah' - but nowadays, it’s Data-Based & Market-oriented. Farmers are adopting Climate-Smart Agricultural practices like conservation agriculture, agroforestry, water & energy management like use of solar & drip irrigation systems, among other measures to ensure that they produce food safely, efficiently & make a decent living. #UkulimaSioUshamba #DripIsLife @DavisShirtliff
