A new trial shows that a dynamic feed optimization model based on age‑weight curves significantly improves broiler production.
In a 35‑day test with 10,000 Ross 308 broilers, the model reduced feed waste from 8.2% to 2.2% (a 6% absolute cut), lowered feed conversion ratio (FCR) by 7.9%, and increased final body weight from 1.85 kg to 2.05 kg (+11.1%). Flock uniformity improved 12%, and mortality dropped by 3.8 percentage points.
Unlike fixed feeding, the model adjusts feed portions every 2–4 hours using weekly weight samples, real‑time algorithms, and high‑precision sensors (±1g). The system is ready for integration with automated feeders in commercial floor rearing farms.
This data‑driven approach reduces feed costs (60–70% of total production cost) and enhances flock health. It represents a practical step toward precision poultry farming.

Quantifying Feed Waste in Manual Poultry Feeding: Spillage, Mold Contamination, and Feed Refusal Analysis
Feed efficiency is a critical factor in determining the profitability of commercial poultry production. In manual feeding systems, feed waste is often underestimated, yet it can significantly impact operational costs. This article provides a quantitative breakdown of three major feed loss channels: spillage, mold contamination, and feed refusal. Spillage is one of the most visible…

Poultry Feed Auger Diameter: 45mm vs 60mm vs 75mm – How to Choose
Feed augers (screw conveyors) are the core of automated feeding systems, moving feed from silos to feeder lines. The three most common diameters for poultry are 45mm, 60mm, and 75mm. Correct selection impacts delivery efficiency and system longevity. 45mm Auger – Small Farms or Main Feed LineDelivers 250–500 kg/h. Suitable for farms under 5,000 birds,…

2026–2030 Adoption Forecast for Floor Rearing Automation: Which Technology Becomes Standard First?
Over the next five years, three automation technologies will lead floor rearing adoption. Automated feeding systems top the list. Their clear payback (12–24 months) and direct feed savings (5–10%) make them the first standard feature globally. Tunnel ventilation with evaporative cooling follows closely. Rising heat waves and climate volatility push this system from optional to essential in tropical…

Comparison of Disease Risks in Open-Sided and Closed Poultry Houses under El Niño–Induced Precipitation Extremes
During El Niño events, heavy rainfall or prolonged drought alter housing microclimates, affecting disease risks differently in open-sided and closed poultry houses. In open-sided houses, heavy rainfall increases litter moisture and ammonia levels, promoting coccidiosis and pododermatitis. Dry conditions increase airborne dust, irritating the respiratory tract and increasing the incidence of colibacillosis. Closed houses with…
