- A closed-system chicken house controlled by smart devices is being showcased at Malaysiaโs MAHA 2026 exhibition in Serdang.
- Sensors monitor conditions and send data to a climate-control system, which adjusts equipment such as heaters and ventilation fans.
- Dindings Tyson Poultry House says the technology can reduce reliance on labor, increase production and lower chicken mortality.
A modern chicken house that can be controlled with a smart device is among the main attractions at the Malaysia Agriculture, Horticulture and Agrotourism Exhibition, or MAHA 2026, in Serdang.
The system, introduced by Dindings Tyson Poultry House, uses a closed environment to provide tighter control over conditions for raising chickens. It manages temperature, ventilation and the broader environment inside the coop.
The sensors send data to the climate-control system, which then controls whether the heaters or fans are needed.
Engineering manager Ian Tan said sensors detect conditions in the house before sending data to a climate-control system. The system then determines whether equipment such as heaters or ventilation fans needs to operate.
โThe sensors send data to the climate-control system, which then controls whether the heaters or fans are needed,โ Ian told Utusan Malaysia. He said the technology reduces reliance on workers while helping raise production and lower the chicken mortality rate.
The use of this technology not only reduces reliance on labor, but also helps increase production and reduce the chicken mortality rate.
