In today's ever-evolving agricultural landscape, advancements in technology continue to shape the way we approach poultry farming. One such innovation, gaining traction for its remarkable impact on egg production, is Full Spectrum LED lighting. At COOP Collective, we're proud to introduce our revolutionary SOLAY Lighting System, integrating Full Spectrum LED technology to enhance egg-laying cycles and boost productivity like never before.
Traditional lighting methods in chicken coops often fall short when it comes to replicating the natural daylight conditions crucial for optimal egg production. However, research indicates that Full Spectrum LED lighting closely mimics the sun's natural spectrum, providing chickens with the ideal lighting environment to stimulate their reproductive systems and encourage consistent egg-laying throughout the year.
Where is the proof?
Research by the Sustainable Living Center in Oregon has suggested, "Many chicken farmers still utilize general-purpose residential and commercial 40W, 60W, and even 100W incandescent lamps in their coops. These lamps are well suited to human environments, but incandescent light is not the same as sunlight, and the best light for humans is not necessarily the best light for animals. Animals have evolved living under the sunlight, whose spectrum differs substantially from that of incandescent light...
LEDs are the most efficient and environmentally friendly of the chickens lighting options, producing white light by combining a blue LED with red and green phosphors. The spectrum is near continuous with especially strong blues, but also ample green and red. While not exactly daylight, the LED spectrum provides a close approximation of daylight from a human’s point of view, without the spectral gaps of other technologies. They also have the longest lifetime, are highly rugged, are not susceptible to shock or vibration, and allow for color shifting and color control."
What is Full Spectrum LED?
Full Spectrum LED lighting is a type of illumination technology that emits light across the entire electromagnetic spectrum, closely resembling natural sunlight. Unlike traditional lighting sources that often produce light within specific wavelength ranges, Full Spectrum LEDs provide a balanced spectrum that encompasses all colors and wavelengths visible to the human eye. This comprehensive range of light wavelengths is beneficial for various applications, including indoor agriculture, where it promotes healthy plant growth, enhances color rendering, and supports natural processes such as photosynthesis. In poultry farming, Full Spectrum LED lighting mimics the sun's natural spectrum, providing chickens with the ideal lighting conditions to stimulate their reproductive systems and optimize egg production. Overall, Full Spectrum LED lighting offers superior performance, energy efficiency, and versatility compared to conventional lighting technologies, making it an increasingly popular choice across diverse industries.
COB Technology
What sets our SOLAY Lighting System apart is our utilization of Chip-on-Board (COB) technology, a cutting-edge approach that eliminates the need for individual LED dots on the light strips. This innovative design ensures uniform light distribution throughout the coop, eliminating any inconsistencies or hotspots that may disrupt the chickens' natural rhythms. With COB technology, our lighting system delivers unparalleled reliability and efficiency, maximizing its effectiveness in promoting egg production.
Sustainability and Responsibility
Incorporating Full Spectrum LED lighting into our SOLAY Lighting System isn't just about increasing egg production—it's also about sustainability and environmental responsibility. LED technology consumes significantly less energy compared to traditional lighting sources, reducing electricity costs and minimizing our carbon footprint. By harnessing the power of Full Spectrum LEDs, we're not only optimizing egg production but also contributing to a greener, more sustainable future for poultry farming.
At Coop Collective, we're dedicated to empowering farmers of all kinds with innovative solutions that revolutionize their operations. With our SOLAY Lighting System, powered by Full Spectrum LED lighting and COB technology, backyard farmers can unlock the full potential of their flocks, ensuring consistent egg production year-round while prioritizing sustainability and efficiency.
