Scotland’s second-biggest egg producer is looking to further boost output with a £2.4 million investment in AI technology.
New computer vision grading equipment will come into use at Aberdeenshire-based Farmlay from the start of next year which will nearly double production from 500 to 900 cases per hour. Managing director Iain Chapman, whose grandparents started rearing poultry in 1946, said the investment comes as retail sales of eggs have grown by more than 20% during the last two decades.
