These new barns are one of the most modern barns in South East Asia. Hotraco Agri worked with VDL Agrotech to design the climate and feed control systems.

Climate system 

A cooling installation ensures that the temperature inside the barn remains at approximately 20 °C. The capacity of the cooling installation is controlled in the switchpanel by an integrated Hotraco system. This system controls the ventilation in the barn and in the adjacent areas, such as the loading area and the service centre. The ventilation in the barn is controlled based on the temperature, the relative humidity and the pressure. The barn is kept at an excess pressure and all the incoming air is filtered. The feed system is controlled by an integrated Hotraco computer. The supply of drinking water is also controlled and the water consumption is recorded. All these control systems, including the alarm, are...
