LAHORE – International hatchery expert, Steve Tweed, has said that farm efficiency is vital for the development of the poultry industry in Pakistan. He was addressing a seminar on ‘COBB 500’, the most efficient poultry breed, in a local hotel on other day.
The seminar was organised by K&N’s, which was attended by representatives of different poultry companies. Highlighting the significance of ventilation in poultry farming and hatchery, Tweed said that there was a pressing need to adopt modern poultry technologies.
He pointed out that oxygen level, air volume, relative humidity, room pressure, air distribution and temperature were critical aspects which were often ignored, which required greater attention in hatcheries. He said farmers could not only enhance farm efficiency but also save a huge sum of money by adopting modern technology.
Elaborating on COBB 500, he said that it was the most efficient broiler breed, which had lowest feed conversion and best growth rate. He pointed out that COBB 500 has the ability to thrive in low density and costs less in terms of feeding expenditure.
