With the continuous growth of the company, it has become increasingly important to support households in improving their broiler chicken farming techniques. This article will provide a comprehensive overview of broiler management, covering three main areas: the production characteristics of broilers, feeding methods, and overall management practices.
First, let's look at the production characteristics of broilers. These chickens grow very quickly, typically reaching 35 grams within the first few days of life. Their short growth cycle means that farms must be efficient in managing each batch. After slaughter, it's essential to clean and disinfect the chicken house promptly to prepare for the next round of birds. Another key feature is the high stocking density, which allows for better utilization of space. Broilers are generally calm and don’t fight much, especially during the later stages of growth. As long as the litter is kept clean and there is proper ventilation, a density of up to 10-11 chickens per square meter can be maintained, provided there’s an outdoor area for movement. Additionally, raising broilers is relatively simple, with one person capable of managing between 10,000 to 20,000 birds per year.
Next, we’ll discuss feeding methods. Broilers grow rapidly and have a large body size, making them prone to bone fractures, sternum bending, and breast cysts. To reduce these issues, many farmers use a litter-based system, where chickens are raised on the ground with materials like sawdust or straw. This method is cost-effective and helps lower the risk of breast cysts, but it can increase the chances of coccidiosis and require more medication. Alternatively, some farms use elevated systems with wire nets, which improve hygiene, reduce disease risks, and make manure management easier.
Finally, effective broiler management is crucial. Environmental conditions play a major role in the health and growth of the birds. Temperature should be carefully controlled, starting at around 33°C on day one and gradually decreasing by 1–2°C per week. Ventilation is equally important to prevent the buildup of harmful gases like ammonia and carbon dioxide, which can cause respiratory diseases. Lighting also plays a key role—using 24-hour light for the first few days helps chicks adjust, while reducing light hours later encourages rest and growth. Humidity should be maintained between 50% and 60%, and adjustments should be made based on temperature and air quality. Proper stocking density is essential to avoid stress and disease outbreaks. Lastly, ensuring early access to water and feed, using high-quality pellets, and maintaining strict biosecurity measures are all critical for successful broiler farming.
The main effects and production process of Amino Acid chelate: improve bioavailability: after the metal ions in amino acid chelate are combined with amino acid, its absorption and utilization in human body or plants and animals are greatly improved, improve stability: amino acid chelate is more stable in and out of the body and does not easily react with other components, thus maintaining the activity of minerals.
Promote plant growth: In agriculture, amino acid chelate can be used as trace element fertilizer to improve the absorption of trace elements by plants and enhance their disease resistance and growth rate.
High purity amino acids and metal salts are selected as raw materials. Common amino acids include glycine, lysine, etc. Metal salts include zinc sulfate, magnesium sulfate, etc. The amino acid solution is mixed with the metal salt solution in a certain proportion and the reaction is carried out under suitable pH and temperature conditions. This process is usually carried out in a stirred reactor to ensure a homogeneous reaction.
The quality of the produced amino acid chelate is tested to ensure that its purity and stability meet the requirements. Finally, the product is packaged to prevent moisture and contamination.
Amino acid chelates are widely used in human and animal nutritional supplements and plant fertilizers because of their high efficiency and safety.
