Maximising Productivity and Eliminating <i>Campylobacter</i> in Broilers by Manipulating Stocking Density and Population Structure Using ‘Biosecurity Cubes’

This study investigates the effect of stocking density and population dynamics on broiler growth rates and productivity, while further validating the ability of the biosecurity cubes (BC) to protect birds from <i>Campylobacter</i>. In our methodology, six BC were constructed in a commerc...
