Achieving and maintaining a good stable climate with low ammonia levels is a major challenge for many poultry farmers. In addition to adversely affecting animal health, production and the working environment, high levels of ammonia in the stable can also lead to increased environmental impact. The purpose of this project is therefore to locate, evaluate collect and disseminate knowledge about different approaches to reduce ammonia levels in poultry farms. This will be done through knowledge acquisition by business intelligence, workshops and interview studies with farmers. Then evaluation and testing of some methods, information compilation and dissemination of information. The goal is that more farmers would find solutions to reduce the ammonia levels in their farms. In this way, the project can contribute to a more sustainable poultry production, increased profitability for farmers and reduced environmental impact.
Att åstadkomma och upprätthålla ett bra stallklimat med låga ammoniaknivåer är en stor utmaning för många fjäderfäproducenter. Förutom att påverka djurhälsa, produktion och arbetsmiljö negativt kan höga ammoniaknivåer i stallet också leda till ökad miljöpåverkan. Syftet med detta projekt är därför att lokalisera, utvärdera, samla och sprida kunskap kring olika tillvägagångssätt för att reducera ammoniaknivåerna i fjäderfästallar. Detta kommer att göras genom kunskapsinhämtning i form av omvärldsbevakning, workshops samt intervjustudier med lantbrukare. Därefter utvärdering och test av några olika metoder, informationssammanställning och informationsspridning. Målet är att fler producenter ska hitta lösningar för att kunna reducera ammoniaknivåerna i sina stallar. På så vis kan projektet bidra till en mer uthållig fjäderfäproduktion, bättre lönsamhet för producenterna och minskad miljöpåverkan.
