Poultry reared on dirt floors with deep litter, particularly when the litter gets wet, are predisposed to fungal infections, such as aspergillosis and other protozoan diseases, such as avian coccidiosis. The litter within most poultry pens with dirt floors poses a management challenge, since leaking or faulty waterers allow soaking of the litter. This provides an excellent medium for the growth of fungus, such as moulds, mildew and spore producing fungus. Routine turning of the litter at least two to three times per week on a concrete base floor allows for ease of drying due to better surface aeration than on an earthen floor. The objective of this practice is to protect poultry, which is an important livelihood asset for farmers. Through the construction of a damp-free environment, the risk of diseases, such as coccidiosis and helminthosis, from improper litter management, including improper disinfecting of poultry pens, is reduced and as a result the number of healthy birds is increased. This allows the farmers to generate income and contribute to people’s livelihoods and food security.
