Whole Farm Management

The team at CMC are dedicated to the success of your farm and business and we will work closely with you to achieve the best results.

We have close connections with vets, pullet rearers, breed representatives and packers. As a result, we can easily adapt to any changes in the market. We are always looking at ways to improve performance and efficiency through an ever-changing industry – knowledge is king!

Egg Focus Service

For our commercial farms, we provide an Egg Focus service where we gather data on a weekly basis to assess on farm performance. From this we can react quickly and accordingly to any changes required. The Egg Focus service concentrates on percentage lay and egg size so we can alter diets when needed.

This information is then plotted on a graph, against breed targets, and sent back to the producer. As a result, this keeps the dialog flowing between the CMC team and our customers, ultimately coming to a mutual agreement on ration changes.

Crackless Egg

The CracklessEgg also helps determine where hairline cracks might be occurring as a result of issues in the system. This technology involves placing a replica egg in the nest box and following it through the entire system until it is packed on a tray and stacked.

The CracklessEgg sends a Bluetooth signal to a tablet which shows a real-time line graph, thus illustrating where cracks will be occurring. This technology has revolutionised reducing seconds on farm, thus saving the farmer potentially thousands of pounds in downgrades. On the left is an example of a chart produced on farm. Anything in the red zone is where an egg would crack.
