Poultry Production Systems

Poultry production systems refer to the methods used to raise chickens and other birds for meat and eggs. They include various setups such as intensive systems (large-scale indoor farms with controlled environments), semi-intensive (outdoor access with some shelter), and traditional or backyard systems (small-scale, often free-range). These systems differ in space, technology, and management, impacting bird health, productivity, and meat or egg quality. The choice of system depends on factors like resources, market demands, and sustainability goals. Each system aims to efficiently produce poultry products while maintaining animal welfare and environmental considerations.
