Here are some reasons why keeping accurate records is essential in broiler farming:
- Tracking growth and performance
Keeping track of feed intake, weight gain, and feed conversion ratio (FCR) is important to see how broilers are growing. By watching these numbers, farmers can make better choices about feeding and the environment to help birds grow faster and reduce feed waste. - Health management and biosecurity
Keeping detailed health records is vital in broiler farming since diseases can spread quickly. Tracking vaccination schedules, medicine use, and disease occurrences helps in finding problems early and preventing them, which lowers death rates and money loss. - Feed efficiency and cost control
Feed costs a lot in broiler farming. Good records help farmers check feed efficiency and make changes to improve FCR, which helps make more profit. Maintaining records also helps with market planning to maximize profitability. Tracking feed costs also aids in budgeting and controlling expenses. - Market planning and profitability
