Behavior of broilers and impacts occurring to them during mechanical loading under field conditions

Behavior of broilers and impacts occurring to them during mechanical loading under field conditions

ABSTRACT: Mechanical loading has been used increasingly in recent years alongside the manual loading of broilers. The aim of this study was to analyze the influence of various factors on the behavior of broilers and the impacts occurring to broilers during loading with a loading machine in order to...
