The challenge

‍

Altaleb Farms, managing diverse livestock including chickens, cows, and fish, faced recurring issues caused by unsuitable environmental conditions in their facilities. Without real-time monitoring, it was difficult to maintain the necessary air and water quality standards—resulting in declining animal health and productivity.

‍

‍

Key pain points

‍

• Environmental factors like temperature, humidity, CO₂, ammonia, and hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) were unmonitored.
• Fish pond conditions, particularly ammonium ion levels, lacked oversight.
• Health and growth of animals were impacted due to unregulated living environments.

‍

‍

The solution

‍

LTS deployed a fully integrated Poultry Monitoring Solution to enable real-time environmental monitoring across Altaleb Farms, using LoRaWAN technology for long-range, low-power communication.

‍

Key features included:

• Battery-powered sensors to monitor
  • Chicken Poultry: Temperature, humidity, CO₂, ammonia, and H₂S
  • Fish Ponds: Ammonium ion levels
• Up to 10-year battery life, based on data transmission frequency
• Wireless connectivity using LoRaWAN, ideal for large farming areas without reliable power infrastructure
• Real-time alerts and environmental dashboards to help staff take quick corrective actions

Implementation highlights

‍

• Multi-zone poultry and livestock coverage
• Environmental monitoring for five critical gases and metrics
• Fish pond integration with water quality sensors
• 10-year battery-powered sensors
• LoRaWAN network for long-range, energy-efficient communication

Business impact

‍

The system created a healthier and more controlled environment across the farm, leading to:

• Data-driven management of animal environments
• Enhanced animal health and productivity
• Fewer manual checks and more proactive maintenance
• Higher yield in poultry and aquaculture operations

With this smart deployment, Altaleb Farms achieved a significant boost in operational efficiency and livestock well-being, reinforcing their commitment to sustainable and intelligent farming practices.
