Produktbeschreibung
It's been estimated that more than 70 billion broilers are slaughtered globally each year to meet the growing demand for poultry meat. To uphold its position as the second most consumed meat globally, broiler production must mitigate several challenges, including the need to balance production and economic priorities with issues such as ethics, animal welfare, environmental impact and sustainability. Future perspectives in broiler rearing: Incorporating the broiler point of view provides a comprehensive overview of conventional broiler production and considers the measures required to build a more sustainable sector. The book addresses the range of environmental and genetic factors which can influence the development of a healthy broiler chick, as well as best practices for managing the needs and maintaining the health of broilers from the hatching stage through to end of life.
