The importance of fertility testing and the interpretation of results

摘要

Measuring the level of fertility of any batch of eggs is an important task for several reasons.To determine whether any hatch problems are due to poor fertility.To monitor the performance of the artificial insemination crew on the farm and to allow remedial action to take place when fertility declines.If fertility is low (<90%) then removing the infertile eggs from the incubator can reduce the problem of cool spots within the machine.
