Data-Driven Health Management, Automated Equipment Safeguards Layer Hens and Egg Safety – Big Herdsman Makes an Appearance at the Forum on Edible Raw Eggs of the 9th China Animal Health and Food Safety Conference

2025-09-26

Introduction

On September 24th, the 9th China Animal Health and Food Safety Conference was grandly held in Qingdao. The sub-forum of this conference, titled “Consensus on Quality Standards for Edible Raw Eggs – Global Practices and China’s Path”, is guided by the China Association of Rural development, hosted by China Animal Health & Food Safety Alliance, undertaken by Qingdao Agricultural University, and sponsored by Fengji Food Group Co., Ltd. Qingdao Big Herdsman Machinery Co., Ltd. was invited to attend the conference, and Chen Jun, the Technical Director of Layer Hen Products, delivered a special speech at the conference, sharing the cutting-edge practices of automated equipment in layer hen health management and egg safety.

As consumers’ requirements for food safety and quality continue to rise, the standards for edible raw eggs have become a focus of attention in the industry. The current conference focuses on the intelligence, standardization and health management of layer hen breeding, aiming to promote the high-quality development of China’s egg industry. As a leading enterprise in the animal husbandry equipment industry, Big Herdsman appeared at the conference with the concept of “Data-Driven, Health Management” and demonstrated the key technologies of automated equipment in improving layer hen welfare and egg safety.

In his speech titled “Data-Driven, Health Management: How Automated Equipment Safeguards Layer Hens and Egg Safety”, Chen Jun pointed out that the health of chicken flocks is the fundamental guarantee for egg safety. Through the optimal design of the automated three-dimensional breeding system, such as reasonable ventilation, appropriate inter-layer spacing, and precise feeding position configuration, the “healthy living”, “healthy eating” and “healthy laying” of the chickens are ensured.

He particularly mentioned that Big Herdsman has effectively reduced the egg breakage rate, improved the egg collection efficiency, and achieved a saving of more than 20% in egg picking time through technologies such as chicken bionics and intelligent egg collection. Meanwhile, relying on the Internet of Things (IoT), big data, and cloud platforms, the entire chain of digital management—from environmental control and production monitoring to quality traceability—is realized, providing a solid guarantee for the health of layer hens and the safety of eggs.

Conclusion

This conference provides an in-depth exchange platform for industry experts, enterprise representatives and scientific research institutions, and Big Herdsman’s technical sharing has attracted great attention from the participants. In the future, Big Herdsman will continue to be committed to the research, development and promotion of intelligent breeding equipment, helping China’s layer hen industry enter a new stage of safer, more efficient and sustainable development.
