Summary: | The swiftlet farming is a new type of business that is gradually growing in our
country. Swiftlet farming can be defined
as
the conversions of people
-
centric
buildings into buildings used to house and protect a certain species of swiftlets
.
Swiftlets are being lured into these buildings with the purpose of collecting their
valuable bird nest. This method is more efficient comp
ared to the traditional method
of bird
-
nest harvest and can ensure the preservation of the swiftlet population.
Constant attention and involvement from a lot of people and different organizations
cause the swiftlet farming to undergo a lot of development a
nd research to expand
the industry. Different types of material and designs of swiftlet farms are being
created to cater the needs of the swiftlets. The different aspects of building
construction such as the orientation of the building, the wall materials
and designs
and also the roof aspects have a significant effect to the suitable environment for the
swiftlets. With the various available materials and designs exist, the most preferable
options are being chosen to minimize the investment and to avoid furt
her problems
occur. |
