Sensors, silos and scales on the farm

All farm devices in one app

Feed level sensors in silos, bird scales and climate sensors send readings via LoRaWAN straight to the app. You get live data, alerts and full history — no cables, no second screen.

verifiedFrom the team that has organised work on poultry farms for years.

Sound familiar?

Three devices, three screens — and no alert in time

Sensors connected to the app collect all this in one place and notify you before something becomes a problem.

grain

Feed level checked by eye

You tap the silo or climb a ladder. By the time you know how much is left, the order is already a day late.

scale

Bird weight measured every few days

You weigh by hand, calculate and compare. Deviations from the norm become visible too late — when the problem has already been building.

thermostat

Climate judged by feel

You sense temperature and ammonia on your walk-through. No numbers, no alert when a threshold is crossed.

device_hub

Data scattered across devices

Climate controller, scale display, silo notebook — none of these places talk to each other.

Connect the whole farm in one place.

What you can connect

Which devices send data to the app

grain

Feed level sensors in silos

Radar, ultrasonic or weight-based — they measure the level and send the reading to the app. You see the percentage in every silo and a "X days left" forecast.

scale

Bird weight scale

The automatic scale sends the daily sample weight. The app compares the result against the breed and age norm and plots the growth curve in the Flock Card.

thermostat

Climate sensors: temperature and humidity

A combined T+RH sensor monitors the microclimate of the poultry house. An alert arrives when temperature or humidity falls outside the acceptable range for the flock’s day of age.

air

Gas sensors: NH₃ and CO₂

Ammonia and carbon dioxide measured continuously — a notification arrives before levels harm the birds or workers.

water_drop

Flow meters and water meters

Water consumption from the drinker line lands in the app. A significant drop from the norm is an early signal of a health issue or equipment failure.

memory

Climate controller (data logging)

If your controller supports export, historical data can be loaded into the site card to give a complete picture of the cycle.

How it works technically

LoRaWAN: sensor on the silo, reading on your phone — no cables, no Wi-Fi in the poultry house

cable

No cables and no internet in the poultry house

The sensor runs on a battery and sends data over LoRaWAN radio. You do not need a power socket or Wi-Fi in every building.

router

A gateway on the farm

One LoRaWAN gateway (mounted in a building with mains power or solar) picks up signals from all sensors and forwards them to the DlaFerm.pl server.

cell_tower

Long range, low power

LoRaWAN works over several kilometres — enough for the whole farm, even spread across several plots.

battery_full

Battery life of years

A silo sensor sends a reading every few minutes and runs on a battery for many years. The app warns you about a low battery in advance.

Sensor data in the Flock Card

Readings from devices appear alongside the flock — not somewhere else

scale

Bird weight in the daily entry

The reading from the automatic scale appears with the daily entry in the Flock Card. You do not copy anything by hand — the result is already there.

notifications_active

Appetite drop alert

When the flock eats noticeably less than the norm for the breed and day of life, you get a notification. It is often the first sign of disease, long before mortality.

water_drop

Water consumption and flock health

A drop in water intake alongside the treatment history and weight — all in one place makes it easy to assess what is happening with the flock.

history

History of every cycle

Sensor readings are stored together with the flock history. At the next placement you go back and see how climate and feed went during the previous cycle.

DlaFerm.pl and IRZplus

IRZplus: your sensor and flock data is ready — we can file the reports for you

policy

DlaFerm.pl can file IRZplus reports

IRZplus is the mandatory ARiMR system where you report placements and slaughter. If you want, DlaFerm.pl prepares and submits those reports for you — automatically, without logging into the portal. It’s an option: hand it to us or file them yourself.

check_circle

Your data is already to hand

Sensor readings, daily entries, mortality and placements are kept in the Flock Card as you go. When a report is due in IRZplus, the data is ready — no copying from notebooks.

calculate

You decide what and when

You switch on submission to IRZplus whenever you like, for the flocks you choose. The choice is yours: let DlaFerm.pl file some reports and do others yourself — whatever suits you.

print

Full step-by-step guide

Records, deadlines and reports are covered in our guide flock records in IRZplus. This page is about sensors — IRZplus is just one of the things they help you sort out.

Why DlaFerm.pl

Why farmers connect sensors to one app

hub

One screen for the whole farm

Silo, bird weight, climate and Flock Card in one app — from your phone or computer, without logging into several systems.

notifications_active

Alert before something happens

Low feed level, weight deviation, ammonia out of range, sensor offline — you get a notification right away, not at the next walk-through.

construction

Installation without an electrician

LoRaWAN sensors run on a battery. You mount them yourself in a few minutes — we help with the first one.

pets

Data goes into the Flock Card

Readings from devices land automatically with the daily entry. Nothing to copy, nothing to lose.

How to start

Three steps to sensors connected to the app

1

Registration and farm setup

You create a free account and enter your buildings and silos. Within 24 hours we help you configure the farm.

2

Sensor installation

We install the gateway and sensors on your farm (or help with the first one). The sensors immediately start sending readings.

3

Live readings and alerts

You open the app and see the feed level, bird weight and climate in real time. Alerts arrive on your phone.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about sensor integration and IRZplus

What devices can I connect to DlaFerm.pl?add

Feed level sensors in silos (radar, ultrasonic, weight-based), automatic bird weight scales, temperature and humidity sensors for the poultry house, ammonia (NH₃) and CO₂ sensors, and water flow meters. All transmit data via LoRaWAN.

How does connecting sensors to the app work?add

Sensors send data over LoRaWAN radio to a gateway installed on the farm. The gateway forwards readings to DlaFerm.pl servers. You do not need cables or Wi-Fi in the poultry house — sensors run on a battery for many years.

Does DlaFerm.pl integrate with IRZplus?add

Yes. If you want, DlaFerm.pl prepares and submits flock change reports (placement, slaughter) to IRZplus for you — without logging into the ARiMR portal. It’s an option, not a requirement: hand the submission to us or file it yourself. The full walkthrough is on the flock records in IRZplus page.

Are sensor readings available in real time?add

Yes. A silo sensor sends a reading every few minutes, bird scales — once a day (or at every weighing), climate sensors — every few minutes. You see current values and history in the app on your phone or computer.

Do sensor readings go into the Flock Card?add

Yes. Bird weight appears with the daily entry in the Flock Card, and the feed consumption reading from the silo and water intake are visible alongside the daily flock metrics. Everything comes together as a chronological cycle history.

Do I need a technician to install the sensors?add

LoRaWAN sensors are designed for self-installation — you mount them on the silo or in the poultry house without cables. We come out and help with the first kit. The app warns you about a low battery well in advance.

Let’s do it together, DlaFerm.pl
