Modern agricultural operations depend on electricity for nearly every aspect of daily production. From poultry houses and hatcheries to livestock facilities, feed systems, water systems, ventilation equipment, and environmental controls, power interruptions can quickly create serious operational and financial consequences.
Matlock Electric provides dependable agricultural backup power solutions throughout Arkansas and Eastern Oklahoma, helping producers protect livestock, maintain production schedules, and minimize downtime during utility outages and severe weather events.
Northwest Arkansas is home to some of the most advanced poultry production operations in the world. Companies involved in breeding, hatchery operations, poultry production, and agricultural research depend on highly controlled environments where power reliability is critical.
Organizations such as Aviagen and the many poultry producers, contract growers, hatcheries, and support facilities throughout the region rely on ventilation systems, incubation equipment, environmental controls, lighting, water delivery systems, and feed distribution equipment to maintain healthy and productive operations.
Even a short outage can impact animal welfare, production schedules, environmental conditions, and operational efficiency. Matlock Electric helps agricultural facilities implement backup power systems designed to protect critical infrastructure and minimize downtime when utility power is interrupted.
Agricultural facilities often require more than a standard standby generator. Our team evaluates electrical loads, critical systems, future growth requirements, and operational priorities to develop backup power solutions tailored to each facility.
We frequently evaluate systems supporting:
Agricultural operations operate on tight production schedules. An unexpected outage can result in production delays, equipment failures, livestock stress, product loss, and significant financial consequences.
By investing in a properly designed backup power system and ongoing maintenance program, facility owners can improve reliability, reduce risk, and maintain operations during severe weather and utility interruptions.
Our services don't stop after installation. We provide generator maintenance, inspections, repairs, testing, and emergency support to help ensure your equipment remains ready when needed.
