A Lower-Cost Alternative to Conventional 29 to 31 Day Broiler Production
In South Africa, commercial broilers are typically grown in 29 to 31 days on high-cost processed concentrates.
Green2Gro offers a different approach: a slightly longer growing cycle using fresh, enzyme-rich sprouted fodder that significantly reduces total feed cost while supporting better bird health, carcass quality and certification potential.
The feed is produced daily on your farm in climate-controlled multi-tier aeroponic CEA Chambers. You do not buy equipment. The complete system is 100% funded by Centrafin over 72 months.
| Phase | Typical Period | Practical Daily Wet Sprouts per Bird | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | Day 0–14 | 40–90 g | Sprouts are crushed |
| Grower | Day 15–28 | 120–200 g | Transition to whole or lightly processed |
| Finisher | Day 29 to end | 220–280 g | Full replacement of concentrates |
| Cycle Average | Full cycle | ±180–220 g | Depends on final weight and cycle length |
What It Costs, Per Day
Estimate Your Savings
Enter what you currently spend on concentrate, and see what the published ranges above imply for your farm.
Based on the published feed-cost saving range for this species (above). Excludes additional savings from eliminating transport (typically R800–R1,200 per ton) and the performance gains many farmers report. This is an estimate, not a formal quote — request a proposal for exact numbers.
| Category | Green2Gro Daily Cost | Standard Daily Cost | Daily Saving | Saving |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Broilers (cycle average) | R0.67 – R0.82 | R0.86 – R1.38 | R0.04 – R0.71 | 5% – 51% |
| Category | Green2Gro Daily Cost | Organic Daily Cost | Daily Saving | Saving |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Broilers (cycle average) | R0.67 – R0.82 | R1.08 – R1.80 | R0.26 – R1.13 | 24% – 63% |
On the numbers above: these are pure feed-cost comparisons only. Total cost of ownership tells the fuller story: transport savings (typically R800 to R1,200 per ton) and the health and productivity gains many farmers report from fresh, enzyme-rich sprouts add further to the advantage shown here. Green2Gro does not claim 1 kg of wet sprouts equals 1 kg of dry concentrate — the daily volumes above are calculated to deliver equivalent or better usable protein and energy than the concentrate they replace.
Nutritional support: even when fully replacing concentrates, a species-appropriate broiler vitamin-mineral premix is still recommended for optimal growth, immune function and overall performance.
Important: if you are working toward organic or regenerative certification, please ensure the premix you use is approved for your specific certification scheme.
