Enhancing Management of Water Supply Systems in Duck Farming Equipment

Only safe and hygienic drinking water can promote the growth and development of duck flocks.
Only safe and hygienic drinking water can promote the growth and development of duck flocks. Using appropriate duck farming equipment and implementing strict management of duck house environments and water supply systems are essential to ensure the sanitary condition of drinking water.
Farm water sources must be located far from pollution sources such as factories, landfills, residential areas, and manure storage sites. Wells should be located on elevated, dry terrain to prevent rainwater or sewage backflow from contaminating the water source. Regularly inspect the cleanliness of drinking water.
Microorganisms can enter duck houses by adhering to suspended particles and infecting the flock. Installing filters on pipes entering the duck house is an effective method to eliminate some pathogens and improve the quality of incoming water. To ensure effective filtration, clean filters weekly and replace filter cartridges that have lost their filtering capacity. If water meters are installed on both sides of the filter, monitor the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet meters to determine when cleaning or replacement is needed. When the inlet pressure equals the outlet pressure, filter cleaning or replacement is unnecessary. However, if the inlet pressure exceeds the outlet pressure, promptly clean or replace the filter cartridge.
Since duck water lines remain sealed for extended periods, bacteria within the pipes secrete viscous, nutrient-rich biofilms when exposed to solid particles in the water. These biofilms attract additional bacteria and contaminants, rapidly transforming the sealed system into a breeding ground for pathogens and a vehicle for disease transmission.
Therefore, farmers must strengthen water line management through the following measures:
(1) Cleaning water lines in occupied sheds: Every 15 days, inject disinfectant (e.g., Anli, Ouk) into the water lines using a high-pressure air pump. Flush and disinfect the lines, soak for 20 minutes, then rinse with high-pressure water for 20 minutes.
(2) Cleaning empty duck housing water lines: After flushing the water lines, inject a descaling agent (Kenters) into the lines using a high-pressure air pump. Soak for 24 hours, then flush with high-pressure water for 1 hour.
