3 TOP PRODUCERS OF POULTRY IN THE WORLD
1. China2. Soviet Union3. United States
• At one time in our history, all families in rural areas had some type of poultry. Not only did chickens provide the family with fresh eggs, but also with fresh meat.

BROILER
•Broiler Industry: the raising of chickens for meat
•Broiler: a bird that is grown to about 7 or 8 weeks old and is dressed for market
![Page 5: POULTRY. All cultures accept poultry for human consumption Muslim and Jewish cultures do not eat pork Hindu cultures do not eat beef](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551995de55034643068b47d5/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
BROILER COMPANY
• In the broiler industry, a company such as Tyson, Perdue, etc. will supply the producer (farmer) with the chicks, feed, medications, vaccines, and other supplies.• The company also agrees to pay the
producer a predetermined price per pound for the boilers produced.

BROILER PRODUCER
• The producer provides• The house• Feeding and watering equipment• Utilities• Litter material• Waste disposal• Labor

VERTICAL INTEGRATION
• The company is usually vertically integrated.• Vertical Integration: the company owns the hatchery, feed mills, processing plants, and distribution centers

BROILER HOUSING
• A broiler house can hold 6,000 to 40,000 birds• When the birds are small, heat is provided by
brooders. Brooders are powered by gas or electricity.• The houses is lighted almost around the clock• According to the research, light greatly reduces
cannibalism.• Cannibalism: the attacking of birds by other
birds in a flock• Lights are turned out for 1 hour each night to
keep the birds from becoming hyperactive in the event that the power goes out

BROILER PRODUCTION
• Begins with the production of eggs to be hatched for young broilers• The parents are selected because of their
rapid growth rate and large amount of breast meat• Broiler hens are quite different in
appearance from egg laying hens• Layers that produce eggs for consumption
are selected for their egg laying capacity
![Page 10: POULTRY. All cultures accept poultry for human consumption Muslim and Jewish cultures do not eat pork Hindu cultures do not eat beef](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551995de55034643068b47d5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
BROILER PRODUCTION
• Most broilers are hybrid birdsoCrossed between different breeds of chickens to
produce the meaty birds that are desired
• Crossbred birds are generally healthier and grow faster than purebred animalsoKnown as heterosis or hybrid vigor
![Page 11: POULTRY. All cultures accept poultry for human consumption Muslim and Jewish cultures do not eat pork Hindu cultures do not eat beef](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551995de55034643068b47d5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
THE PROCESS
• Step 1: Eggs are produced at a laying facility• Step 2: Eggs are transported to a
hatchery where they are incubated and hatched• Step 3: Hatched chickens are transported
to a broiler house• Step 4: Grown to 6 or 7 weeks old before
they are ready for the market

AT THE BROILER HOUSE
• Before the birds arrive, the house is• Cleaned• Disinfected• Litter is placed on the ground
• Litter• Placed on the floor• Keeps the birds clean and dry• Usually consists of shavings or sawdust
![Page 13: POULTRY. All cultures accept poultry for human consumption Muslim and Jewish cultures do not eat pork Hindu cultures do not eat beef](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551995de55034643068b47d5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
AT THE BROILER HOUSE
• Brooders are large pan-shaped heaters that are used to keep the chicks warm during their first days in the house.
• Birds are fed by conveyer belts that automatically food. Water is also supplied automatically.
• Once the birds reach 6-7 weeks old, they are ready for market
• They are usually caught at night when they are less active
• Once the birds are gone, the litter must be changed
• The litter is used as a fertilizer for pastures and growing plants.

LAYER INDUSTRYEGGS
• The consumption of eggs has greatly decreased over the last 30 years• Reflection of dietary changes
• Over 90% of eggs are produced by layers in cages• Hens live in cages• Usually 4 hens per cage
• The birds have been developed to tolerate the confinement operation and to effectively produce eggs
![Page 15: POULTRY. All cultures accept poultry for human consumption Muslim and Jewish cultures do not eat pork Hindu cultures do not eat beef](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551995de55034643068b47d5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
LAYERS
• The smaller birds use a large proportion of their metabolism to produce eggs instead of producing muscles and body size.• Produce brown and white eggs
• In the US, the vast majority of eggs sold are white eggs because that is what the consumer prefers
![Page 16: POULTRY. All cultures accept poultry for human consumption Muslim and Jewish cultures do not eat pork Hindu cultures do not eat beef](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551995de55034643068b47d5/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
LAYERS
• Lighting is carefully controlled• Hens naturally lay eggs in the spring and
summer months• Days are longer with more hours of light and
fewer hours of dark in the spring• In these facilities, the light is controlled to
allow 14-15 hours of light each day• Once the hens reach maturity, they receive
15 hours of light per day

EGGS
• The hens lay their eggs• The eggs drop onto a conveyor belt• The conveyor belt carries the eggs to a collection point• At the processing plant, the eggs are coated with a thin coat of light mineral oil.• The mineral oil prevents carbon dioxide from
escaping from inside of the eggs.

EGGS
•Graded according to shape and size
• Candling: the process using intense light to check for cracks and interior spots
![Page 19: POULTRY. All cultures accept poultry for human consumption Muslim and Jewish cultures do not eat pork Hindu cultures do not eat beef](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551995de55034643068b47d5/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
TURKEYS
• 2nd only to chickens in the production of poultry• 1/3 of all sales occur in the weeks surrounding
Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays• Turkeys produced are descendants of wild
turkeys native to the Americas• Consumers prefer to buy white turkeys and
white chickens• Birds with colored feathers have spots on their
skin

TURKEYS
•White Turkeys• Mutation• Created by accident when the gene for skin
pigmentation was left out
• From there, a heavily muscled, broad breasted bird was developed• Poor breeders• Must be bred by AI
![Page 21: POULTRY. All cultures accept poultry for human consumption Muslim and Jewish cultures do not eat pork Hindu cultures do not eat beef](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070306/551995de55034643068b47d5/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
GROWING TURKEYS
•Most are grown in South Atlantic region of the US • North Carolina
• 2 Methods for growing Turkeys1. Confinement Houses2. Open Range• Downside to open range: disease and parasites

OTHER POULTRY
•Duck, quail, and pheasant are produced for restaurants.
•Quail and pheasants are produced for re-stocking wildlife areas.
