Abstract
This study evaluates the performance of automatic temperature control technologies in a closed-house system for broiler chicken production. Four key technologies were assessed: CTI 80, CTI Alpha, Punos, and Temptron, based on three main parameters: chicken mortality rate, growth (average final body weight), and production efficiency (Feed Conversion Ratio/FCR). Data were collected through direct observation, daily records, and final measurements on farms with a minimum population of 80,000 chickens per house. The statistical analysis revealed that CTI Alpha demonstrated the best performance with the lowest mortality rate (255 chickens) and high stability in temperature control. CTI 80 ranked second with performance close to CTI Alpha, followed by Punos. In contrast, Temptron exhibited the lowest performance with the highest mortality rate (595 chickens) and high data variability. The One-Way ANOVA test showed significant differences among the tested technologies (p < 0.05), while the Post Hoc Games-Howell analysis confirmed that CTI Alpha, CTI 80, and Punos performed significantly better than Temptron. This study recommends that farmers adopt CTI Alpha or CTI 80 technologies to optimize broiler chicken production. These technologies not only enhance productivity by reducing mortality rates but also support industry sustainability through resource efficiency and adaptability to climate change. This study provides valuable insights for farmers in selecting appropriate technologies tailored to their specific needs and contributes to the broader understanding of effective temperature control systems in broiler chicken farming.
