Abstract

This project aspires to create a sustainable waste management system by constructing a direct compost tunnel to the chicken coop and producing chicken bran from the compost waste simultaneously. It suits those who want to breed chicken by using organic waste. By minimizing organic waste, compost waste is added to poultry feed to increase its nutritional value and encourage resource efficiency. Through this innovative approach, the project aims to improve the environmental sustainability of the chicken coop while also providing a cost-effective method for feed production. This procedure includes developing and constructing the compost tunnel, monitoring the composting process, and analyzing the chicken bran's nutritional quality. We expect that this technology will have a major positive impact on feed savings, waste reduction, and overall environmental effect mitigation. This product is useful to anyone especially those who wish to begin farming chickens on a small scale.
