BROILER FARMING TECHNOLOGY AND POULTRY MEAT PRODUCTION IN PERSONAL SUBSIDIARY FARMS

Abstract

The developed optimal technology of keeping and feeding broiler chickens in the conditions of personal subsidiary farms allowed to obtain a higher gain in live weight for the entire period of fattening in 2 PSF – 3425 g, which was higher compared to similar PSF by 7.7%, 8% and 5.9%, respectively, in thisregard, at the end of fattening, when handing over poultry meat, it received higher results in comparison with other PSF. The safety of poultry during floorfarmingin each PSF was at a sufficient level. The safety of chickens in 2 PSF was 96.8%, which is higher than in 1 PSF by 5.6%, in 3 PSF by 6.8%, and 1.6% higher in 4 PSF, respectively. The lowest feed consumption per 1 kg of live weight gain was observed in 2 PSF, where theconsumption was 1.96 kg, which is 8.7% less in 1 and 3 PSF and 3.06% less than in 4 PSF, respectively.
