120,000-bird poultry farm project.
A reference engineering package for a 120,000-bird industrial poultry farm scoped for tunnel-ventilated broiler production or high-density layer operations. Use it to align stakeholders, benchmark supplier quotes and structure financing before committing to a single manufacturer.
Project assumptions
Engineering scope
- Master-plan layout with prevailing-wind orientation
- Structural steel frame with insulated sandwich-panel envelope
- Reinforced concrete slab with epoxy sealing
- Tunnel ventilation with per-house static-pressure control
- Biosecurity zoning: dirty / clean corridor separation
- Feed silo cluster with shared truck loop and weighbridge
- Central control room with SCADA-ready monitoring
Equipment & indicative CAPEX bands
Vendor-neutral bands from published market references. HatchMatch Group does not invent supplier quotations — final pricing comes from manufacturers via the RFQ.
Steel structure, insulated panels, service rooms, biosecurity fence.
Pan-feeder lines, bulk silos (2–3 × 15–20 t), augers, weighing.
Nipple lines, regulators, medication dosing, water treatment.
Tunnel fans, cooling pads, air inlets, controllers.
Radiant or forced-air brooders, LPG/diesel/biomass.
Environmental controllers, sensors, alarms, remote monitoring.
Diesel generator (200–300 kVA) with ATS, optional solar-hybrid.
Fencing, shower-in, vehicle wash, FAT/SAT, commissioning.
Utilities & climate control
- Grid + generator hybrid with ATS and load-shedding logic
- Borehole or municipal water with 3-day storage
- LPG or biomass for brooding heat
- Manure removal, composting or biogas digester option
- Fibre connectivity for SCADA and remote alarms
- Tunnel ventilation sized for 6–8 m/s wind speed at max load
- Evaporative cooling pads in hot climates (min. 15 cm pad depth)
- Minimum-ventilation logic for cold-start brooding
- Insulated envelope (U-value ≤ 0.5 W/m²K)
- Per-house environmental controllers with cross-alarms
Power & water requirements
- Estimated peak load: 220–320 kW at full ventilation
- Grid connection: 400–500 kVA transformer
- Backup diesel genset: 250–300 kVA with 24-hour fuel tank
- Optional solar-hybrid layer for daytime ventilation loads
- Estimated peak demand: 28–40 m³/day
- Storage tank: 80–120 m³ (3-day autonomy)
- Chlorination + sediment filtration + UV polish
- Pressure regulation per drinker line
- Independent washdown circuit
Budget bands
Bands exclude land, working capital and financing fees. Add country-specific duties. Subject to final RFQ pricing.
ROI framing
Illustrative ranges only. Actual ROI depends on local feed / egg / meat prices, offtake contracts and financing structure. Model your own case with the calculators below.
Main cost drivers
- Climate zone — hot climates need larger cooling & ventilation
- Level of automation — SCADA, weighing, alarms
- Structural type — insulated panels vs curtain-sided
- Origin of equipment — European, American, Turkish or Chinese lines
- Logistics — inland distance, port charges and Incoterms
- Civil works — soil conditions and local labour rates

FAQ
Indicative all-in CAPEX is USD 1.4M – 3.2M depending on climate, automation level, structural type and country. Final pricing comes from manufacturers via the RFQ.
Typically 5–6 tunnel-ventilated houses of ~1,700 m² at 12–18 birds/m². Hot climates and welfare rules push density down.
