5 keys to successful antibiotic-free poultry production

摘要

Removing antibiotics from poultry growing is making diseases like coccidiosis and necrotic enteritis more common and troublesome on broiler farms. There are ways, however, to prevent these profit-draining maladies.Dr. Charles Hofacre, president of the Southern Poultry Research Group and professor emeritus at the University of Georgia, presented five guiding principles for successful antibiotic-free poultry (ABF) production as part of WATT Global Media's Feed Strategy Conference, which took place on Feb. 13 during the 2019 International Production & Processing Expo in Atlanta.
