At a multi-site chicken farm, a new approach was required when it came to monitoring sheds and ensuring bio-security conditions are met. Woodhouse Fields Farm worked with rural security specialist Agri-CCTV, and used an innovative Hikvision Wi-Fi surveillance solution to address the dispersed nature of the chicken-rearing facilities – and is trialing the use of thermal cameras as a security measure well-suited to rural applications.
Woodhouse Fields in Shrewsbury is a multi-level farming enterprise, which includes around 1500 acres of arable land and nine large poultry sheds for large-scale poultry farming. Corve Poultry Ltd. owner-operator Jonathan Benbow was looking for a means of monitoring his poultry sheds to ensure operational efficiency and bio-security adherence. He approached specialist agricultural security and surveillance installer Agri-CCTV Ltd to help develop a solution.
