Measuring and Auditing Broiler Welfare (CABI Publishing)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
In response to concerns about animal welfare, food assurance schemes are now incorporating standards for animal welfare. This is particularly important in the poultry industry, where much attention has focused on the welfare of broilers (meat birds). However, there is as a result a greater
need for scientifically-based methods for the measurement and auditing of welfare.
This book brings together papers by international experts from the academic, professional and industrial sectors. It examines practical ways of measuring and auditing broiler welfare on-farm, during transit and pre-slaughter. Related marketing issues and future developments such as automation, are
also discussed.
