What does modern poultry production look like when energy efficiency, animal welfare, and operational reliability are factored in right from the planning phase?
That question can be answered by Jesper Clausen, owner of Lisbjerggaard, who has built a new poultry house focused on combining high productivity with future-proof solutions. With experience in both poultry and pig production—and existing SKOV ventilation systems in his current houses—Jesper knew exactly what he wanted to achieve in his new project.
The result is a poultry house where every solution has been carefully designed to create the best possible conditions for both the animals and the operation. The barn incorporates everything from a unique underfloor heating system and green energy to a complete SKOV ventilation system. Every choice was made with a focus on optimizing production and reducing energy consumption, including SKOV’s BlueFan BF 50, chimneys, wall vents, climate and production control systems, and a heating system.
At the heart of the solution is an integrated ventilation system from SKOV, which ensures a stable climate year-round—a climate with which Jesper has been extremely satisfied in his existing houses equipped with SKOV ventilation. The stable climate contributes to improved animal welfare, better production results, and more energy-efficient day-to-day operations.
The new house also demonstrates how modern technology can support future demands on poultry production through solutions that work together and create value across the entire production process.
For producers considering new construction or renovation, the project is a prime example of how the right investments can reduce energy consumption, improve operational reliability, and enhance production resilience.
