BENEFITS / MORTALITY MANAGEMENT
Rethink Mortality Management
Improving your mortality management process can enhance your operation and quality of life while helping you meet your biosecurity requirements. With the day-to-day pressures of running your farm, it can be tempting to continue using older, more familiar methods. The RTS thermal disposal system is a simple, straightforward mortality management process that will benefit your operation and save you time and money.
Bin composting can take more than a month, and each time you open a bin, you’re increasing your potential exposure to contaminants, putting your flock and your water supply at risk.
“The composting shed – even when managed properly – operates as an open-air food source for local scavengers, including buzzards, foxes, raccoons, and feral cats. All of these animals are capable of transmitting various pathogens either mechanically or biologically.”
– Terry Baker
Freezing carcasses is costly and time-consuming. It also requires a third party to remove them, which can endanger your flock by creating the potential for contaminants from other locations. Both approaches add unnecessary expense, labor, and risk to your flock’s health.
RTS Is Better
The RTS thermal disposal systems will transform how you approach mortality management, saving you time and money. No more time-consuming composting, fewer third parties on your site, and less risk to your flock.
With the RTS thermal disposal system, you just load the machine and press the start button. The carcasses are heated and mixed. As the bones and feathers dehydrate and break down, the contents are dehydrated and then automatically transferred to a storage bin. You get a clean, biosecure byproduct ideal for compost, feed additive, or fertilizer.
RTS Is Faster
Instead of waiting for a month, it only takes a few hours to turn one ton of deadstock into clean, biosecure compost. With the RTS thermal disposal systems, you can start the cycle at the end of the day, and it’s finished the next morning. Plus, you can dispose of mortalities year-round.
No more emptying, cleaning, and refilling bins while you wait for nature to take its course. No more waiting for someone to haul away the expired chickens in the freezer. RTS will save you time and money, so there’s more to invest in other areas of your operation.
Some people use incinerators like these to dispose of birds. The process is costly. RTS has a better way.
