The farmermobil^® fm1000 can accommodate 1000 or 1500 layers and is suitable for both organic and free-range farming.

The mobile housing system consists of a middle section, with three side panels mounted on each side. The middle section is permanently installed on a chassis. Scratching areas with solid floors, that seem to hover along with the middle section, are attached to both sides.

The fm1000 mobile housing system is operated fully automatically by its own state-of-the-art computer. It is constructed and fully equipped to enable self-sufficient operation. Storage tanks in the vehicle supply feed and water to the animals. The housing system computer regulates the lighting and the automatic opening and closing of the outdoor access flaps and tilting floor nests, as well as the operation of the ventilation and feeding equipment in the housing system, based on time and/or temperature control. In addition, the manure and egg belts can be electrically operated. If there is a malfunction, the computer automatically sends a text message to the farmer‘s, or a farm hand‘s, phone. Alternatively, the mobile unit can also be monitored and controlled via WLAN.

The entire housing system runs on 24 V. The energy required is supplied by batteries in the vehicle which are charged via a 230V connection. Optionally, a photovoltaic system can be installed on the roof to charge the batteries.*

The fm1000 is delivered completely equipped and takes very little time to be ready for use. The permanently installed chassis makes the mobile poultry housing system fully mobile and flexible. This facilitates easy moving, allowing optimum use of the available pasture and avoiding any excessive input of nutrients into the soil.

*Alternative energy sources to charge the batteries may be required caused by the weather.
