Mr. Arias has been changing over to Big Dutchman for several years and has plans to continue to equip future houses with Big Dutchman systems. The bottom line, he says, “is that Big Dutchman's chain feeding system promotes better management flexibility that equates to higher profits." The computer print-outs from the current test* in Turlock, California, confirm to Mr Arias his decision to go with Big Dutchman Chain Feeding provides him with more eggs, better feed conversion and fewer undergrades than drag auger feeding.
