Investment in pig housing increasing
Strong levels of confidence within the pig and poultry industries are
returning as indicated by investment in housing, according to livestock
buildings specialists, ARM Buildings Ltd.
The company reports a 20% increase in orders across both sectors
for the first six months of this year. Within the pig industry, the demand has
been for grower and finishing houses with producers looking to improve
efficiency which modern, well-designed buildings can deliver. High feed prices
have given this extra impetus.
“We were very busy last year, so this jump in orders on the back of a good
12-months' trading is seen as significant,†said ARM's MD, Mike
McLaughlin.
