LYINE Hydroponic Fodder Container System for High-Yield Livestock Feed Production
The LYINE hydroponic fodder container farming system is a fully automated solution designed for rapid production of fresh green feed for livestock. Built inside a standard refrigerated shipping container, the system enables continuous, year-round fodder cultivation in a controlled environment, independent of climate or land conditions.
This system is developed for livestock farms seeking stable, high-quality feed supply with reduced operational costs. It supports the production of fresh fodder from seeds such as barley, wheat, corn, sorghum, oats, and beans, transforming them into nutrient-rich green feed within a short growth cycle.
Growing Technology and Production Efficiency
The system operates using a hydroponic sprouting process, where seeds are placed in specially designed trays and supplied with controlled water, humidity, and temperature conditions. Within approximately 7 days, seeds develop into fresh green fodder reaching 18–20 cm in height.
The production efficiency is one of the key advantages of this system. A conversion ratio of approximately 1:8 to 1:12 allows 1 kg of seeds to generate up to 8–12 kg of fresh fodder. This significantly reduces feed costs while maintaining a consistent and predictable supply.
Depending on configuration, the system supports daily output capacities ranging from 500 kg to 1500 kg of fresh fodder, making it suitable for medium and large-scale livestock operations. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
Automation and Environmental Control System
The LYINE fodder container integrates a PLC-based centralized control system that manages all key growing parameters. Through a touchscreen interface, operators can control temperature, humidity, irrigation cycles, lighting, ventilation, and sterilization processes using a single system.
Optional remote monitoring via mobile application enables real-time tracking and control of system performance. The automated operation significantly reduces labor requirements, with one operator typically able to manage one or two container units efficiently.
The system also incorporates a separated equipment room design, where electrical components are isolated from the growing environment. This improves reliability and protects sensitive equipment from humidity and water exposure.
System Design and Structural Features
The container is based on a 20ft or 40HQ refrigerated unit, providing insulation and environmental stability. Inside, a multi-layer tray system is arranged to maximize space utilization and ensure uniform growth conditions across all levels.
LYINE uses patented grow trays (85 × 40 × 4 cm) made from food-grade materials, designed with 752 drainage holes to improve airflow and root oxygenation. Each tray is reinforced to support loads up to 50 kg and is engineered for long-term use, with a lifecycle of up to 10 years under standard operating conditions.
The irrigation system ensures even water distribution across all trays, while excess water is collected and reused, reducing overall consumption. Daily water usage ranges from approximately 0.5 to 1 cubic meter depending on system size.
