Alternative Systems for Poultry Zusammenfassung

Alternative Systems for Poultry: Health, Welfare and Productivity Ernest Froelich (Swiss Federal Veterinary Office, Centre for proper housing Poultry and Rabbits, , , CH-3052 Zollikofen, , SWITZERLAND)

Recent interest in how poultry are housed and managed in order to ensure profitability, sustainability, and good levels of animal welfare, are challenging issues that commercial poultry keepers face, particularly where legislation is bringing about legal requirements for housing. This book compares and contrasts alternative housing with conventional and traditional systems for commercial poultry (laying hens, meat chickens, turkeys, waterfowl and gamebirds) with regards to welfare, disease, health, nutrition, sustainability and genotype-environment interaction.
