Activated Barn Fresh is an Organic-appropriate poultry litter acidifier that works just as well in conventional broiler barns.
Activated Barn Fresh uses a patent-pending formula of Citric Acid and Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth to reduce pH and
Ammonia. While other acidifiers are hard on equipment and burn off quickly,
Activated Barn Fresh:
· can be applied up to five days prior to chick placement
· is easier on skin, clothing, and equipment than traditional acidifiers
· improves litter condition as diatomaceous earth accumulates
· works even better when litter is windrowed
· can be applied with birds in the barn
· is listed with OMRI, so is effective for both organic and conventional broiler flocks
