In a groundbreaking collaboration, Scientific Sanitation Solutions (SSS) and a premier
poultry group in the KZN Province of South Africa embarked on a journey to redefine
standards in poultry health and farm efficiency. This ambitious project was designed to
implement state-of-the-art water treatment and disinfection protocols using SANI-99™ for
AGRI. The aim was to significantly enhance poultry health, optimise feed utilisation, and
foster improved growth conditions for the livestock. Spanning an extensive trial involving
370,000 chickens, this initiative marked a progressive leap in poultry farming methodologies,
setting a precedent for future agricultural practices.
The project was founded on the mission to revolutionise the efficiency of poultry farming by
addressing multiple critical aspects of farm operation and animal welfare. At the heart of
these efforts was the adoption of SANI-99™ for AGRI, an innovative water treatment
solution designed to eradicate harmful pathogens and create a safer, more hygienic
environment for poultry. A pivotal aspect of the strategy was adjusting the water's pH level to
3.8, a scientifically determined optimal condition for the health and development of poultry.
This precise calibration was aimed at not only bolstering the physical health of the chickens
but also enhancing feed conversion efficiency—a cornerstone of sustainable agriculture.
Moreover, the initiative strived to reduce mortality rates significantly, a move that would
inherently boost productivity and profitability. Through these meticulously planned objectives,
the partnership sought to establish new benchmarks in poultry farming, showcasing a deep
commitment to innovation, sustainability, ethical animal treatment, and achieving outstanding
economic outcomes.
The deployment of SANI-99™ for AGRI within the farm’s operational system was seamlessly
executed, aligning perfectly with the farm’s pre-existing labour practices. A detailed 360°
biosecurity protocol was meticulously enforced, incorporating thorough disinfection routines
and ongoing monitoring of conditions within the poultry houses. This ensured the
maintenance of an optimal growth environment, crucial for the health and productivity of the
poultry.
The success of the SANI-99™ for AGRI integration not only achieved its immediate
objectives but also set a precedent for the poultry farming industry, demonstrating the
tangible benefits of incorporating advanced biosecurity measures and sustainable farming
practices.
The project faced some hurdles, notably in achieving the precise pH levels required in a few
poultry houses, which were swiftly addressed. The overwhelming success in the vast
majority of houses highlighted the robustness and potential of the protocols for wider
application. This groundbreaking effort underscored the effectiveness of SANI-99™ for AGRI
and the 360° biosecurity protocol as transformative elements in modern poultry farming.
With plans to extend the trial to over 700,000 broilers, there's a clear path forward for further
improvements in farming outcomes. Additionally, ongoing efforts in the hatchery sector aim
to bolster defences against pathogens affecting egg production and quality, further solidifying
SANI-99™ for AGRI's importance in advancing poultry farm biosecurity and sustainability.
"Partnering with Scientific Sanitation Solutions has been a game-changer for our operations.
Their expertise and the innovative application of SANI-99™ for AGRI have propelled our
farming practices into a new era of efficiency and productivity. We've seen remarkable
improvements in chicken health, cost reductions, and market positioning. The future looks
bright with the potential for even greater success." – Large Poultry Farm, KZN Province, SA
