Swiftlets farming for production of edible bird's nests

Abstract

An edible bird's nests production facility, for use in creating and harvesting edible bird's nests. A plurality of arrangement of swiftlet's nesting substrates configured to maximize efficiency, productivity and high net worth value of the edible nests products created. The facility includes mechanized equipment and apparatus for harvesting swiftlet's edible nests at great heights; carriage of goods and equipment in swiftlets farming houses; safe and efficient collection of nests.

We claim: 
     
         1 . A method of collecting swiftlets edible nests from within an artificial roosting structure comprising the steps of:
 positioning a mounting beam having a first end and a second end within the roosting structure, the mounting beam positioned at an incline from a first wall of the roosting structure to a second opposite wall of the roosting structure;   slidably engaging a chair to the mounting beam;   providing a motorized propulsion system to propel the chair along the mounting beam;   providing a safety system to protect against falls from the chair; and   causing slidable movement of the chair by the motorized propulsion system between the first end and the second end to collect the swiftlets edible nests from the chair via a harvesting pole.
