Evaluación de factores ambientales que influyen en el comportamiento productivo en pollos en engorde.

Abstract

Due to the continuous development and progress, the optimization of the productive processes has great importance in order to achieve maximum productive yields in broiler farms, and that is where it becomes unpredictable to manage an adequate environment that provides the birds with the optimal environmental conditions. In order to evaluate the productive performance in the poultry sector, it is necessary to adapt the internal environment of the poultry facilities with techniques that meet the thermal comfort requirements with greater energy efficiency. Broilers during their whole life should be protected from both cold stress and heat stress; To protect animals, poultry farmers have used different strategies, including the use of several layers of curtains to increase the level of thermal insulation and reduce heat losses within poultry houses as part of production under welfare parameters animal. The objective of this study was to evaluate theenvironmental changes in terms of temperature and relative humidity from the arrival of the day 1 chick to the output for the benefit plant after 40 days, ending the production stage, determining the batch homogeneity in how much the consumption of food, body weight, food conversion and mortality with the purpose of obtaining statistical data in the experimental units, in order to know the effect of temperature and humidity in the productive index.
