Moy Park launches poultry development house
Moy Park has invested in a poultry development house allowing it to capture and analyse data to deliver improvements in its poultry rearing and welfare processes.

The development house, located in Co. Down close to where Moy Park is headquartered in Northern Ireland, is over 18,500 square feet in size and is split into 36 individual pens, which will hold 500 birds.
Justin Coleman, Moy Park agriculture development manager said: “This poultry development house has been purpose-built to the highest specification including windows providing natural light, enhanced biosecurity and biomass heating. Chicken is at the very heart of our business and this initiative supports our commitment to sustainability, environmental excellence and developing the farm of the future.”
“This investment allows us to lead the way in innovation providing a precision controlled environment to better monitor bird welfare, feed conversion and environmental impacts so we can provide optimum conditions for our chickens.”
