Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Little Egg Chicken Tractor is a Coop That is Easy to Move

— June 20, 2011 — Eco
The Little Egg Chicken Tractor is a great choice for small-scale chicken ranchers who want a compact, easy-to-use hen house that can also help fertilize their lawns. Not only will laying hens and crowing roosters find sanctuary from roving dogs and crouching cats, their entire home can be easily moved around the yard, distributing daily doses of chicken poo that help grass grow and thrive.

Two to four chickens can share the Little Egg Chicken Tractor portable chicken coop and its attached 8-foot-run. A tilt roof makes cleaning nesting boxes and gathering eggs easy, and the sturdy pine plywood construction means that the Little Egg Chicken Tractor will last. Zinc-coated metal tubing and fasteners that make up the run are also destined for longevity, making this a sound choice for chicken lovers everywhere.
Trend Themes
1. Mobile Chicken Coops - Developing portable, easy-to-use, and lightweight chicken coops produces disruptive innovation opportunities for backyard farmers.
2. Sustainable Agriculture - Creating eco-friendly farming equipment and practices can make a huge difference in reducing carbon footprint while growing food for communities.
3. Smart Farming - Incorporating IoT and AI technologies in farming equipment enables real-time monitoring, providing farmers the ability to track their production, resources, and livestock.
Industry Implications
1. Agriculture - There is a big opportunity for small-scale, sustainable farms to scale up to meet the demands of the increasing population using eco-friendly technologies.
2. Online Retail - Building online stores specialized in selling sustainable farming equipment creates a niche market that supports the growth of small-scale farms.
3. Hardware Manufacturing - Fabricating smart farming equipment that can be easily used by small-scale and large-scale farmers can increase the efficiency, production, and management of agricultural resources.
