Common Poultry Diseases and Vaccines

Several poultry diseases are prevalent in Nepal, and vaccination programs have been developed to target these diseases. Below are some of the most common diseases and the vaccines used to prevent them:

Newcastle Disease (ND)

Vaccine: Live attenuated vaccines, such as LaSota and B1 strains, are commonly used to protect against ND. These vaccines can be administered through drinking water, eye drops, or spray.

Importance: Newcastle Disease is highly contagious and can cause significant mortality in unvaccinated flocks. Vaccination is crucial to prevent outbreaks.

Infectious Bursal Disease (IBD)

Vaccine: Live attenuated vaccines protect against IBD, known as Gumboro Disease. The vaccine is usually administered through drinking water or subcutaneous injection.

Importance: IBD affects the immune system of young chickens, making them more susceptible to other infections. Early vaccination is essential to ensure the health of the flock.

Avian Influenza (AI)

Vaccine: Inactivated vaccinations serve as a defense against Avian Influenza. The vaccine is typically administered via intramuscular injection.

Importance: Avian Influenza is a severe disease that can result in significant financial losses and public health concerns. Vaccination helps in controlling the spread of the disease.

Marek’s Disease (MD)

Vaccine: The HVT (Herpesvirus of Turkeys) vaccine is commonly used to protect against Marek’s Disease. It is administered to day-old chicks via subcutaneous injection.

Importance: Marek’s Disease is a viral infection that can cause chicken tumors. Vaccination is essential to prevent this disease, especially in commercial layers.

Fowl Pox

Vaccine: Live attenuated vaccinations are administered as a preventative against Fowl Pox. The vaccine is administered through wing web puncture.

Importance: Fowl Pox can cause skin and mucous membrane lesions, reducing productivity. Vaccination helps prevent the disease, particularly in endemic areas.

Vaccination Protocols in Nepal

The vaccination protocols for poultry in Nepal vary depending on the type of farm, the age of the birds, and the prevalent diseases in the region. However, some general guidelines are followed to ensure the effectiveness of the vaccination program.

Chickens (Broilers and Layers)

Day-old Chicks: Marek’s Disease vaccine is administered subcutaneously.

7–10 Days: Newcastle Disease vaccine is given through drinking water or eye drops.

14–21 Days: Infectious Bursal Disease (IBD) vaccine is administered via drinking water.

4–6 Weeks: Newcastle Disease booster and Fowl Pox vaccines are given.

8–10 Weeks: Avian Influenza vaccine is administered via intramuscular injection.

Ducks and Geese

Ducks and geese are usually vaccinated against Duck Viral Enteritis (DVE) and Avian Influenza. The vaccination schedule is similar to that of chickens, with the first vaccine given at 7–10 days of age and boosters administered as needed.

Mycotoxin Risk in Poultry - Trouw Nutrition

Microbial contamination

Without solid feed hygiene and preservation strategies in place, Enterobacteriaceae, moulds, and yeast in raw materials and compound feed can easily make their way into feed on the farm. Taking an integrated approach to feeding hygiene is even more important now that formaldehyde has been banned as a feed hygiene enhancer in many countries. For poultry producers that process their own feed, a feed mill scan can assess critical control points on microbial, colony-forming units and identify potential pathogenic threats in raw materials, process lines and compound feed.

An effective quality control programme should include regularly sampling raw materials and cleaning process lines, silos, and feeders on the farm as well as removing residual biofilm in process lines. Treating feed and feed materials with buffered and synergistic blends of organic acids, offered by Selko, can support hygiene and strengthen the natural barrier against gram-negative bacteria in the first part of the digestive tract

Mycotoxin impact

Poultry is vulnerable to mycotoxins, the secondary metabolites of moulds, and can suffer severely, especially when exposed to a combination of different mycotoxins. The most critical mycotoxins for poultry production are aflatoxins, Ochratoxin A, trichothecenes and fumonisins. Ever since their discovery in the 1960s, mycotoxins have caused headaches for feed and livestock producers.

One critical factor contributing to mycotoxin risks is the use of high-fibre diets for layers. These diets cause sustained exposure to multiple mycotoxins, which can negatively impact layer performance and producer's economics. Long-living birds can succumb to chronic toxicity after consuming low levels of mycotoxins every day over time.

Another factor that makes mitigation challenging is the fact that binders are not a solution to all mycotoxins. More than 600 mycotoxins have already been discovered, and researchers continue to identify more every day. Combatting mycotoxins goes beyond binding alone and requires more effective methods that improve both gut health and immunity, enabling birds to endure mycotoxin exposure without a major impact on their health and performance

Mineral optimisation

High-quality poultry feed should not only be free of contaminants but also provide the necessary minerals to support growth and performance. Trace minerals like zinc, copper and manganese are essential to the growth and development of poultry but providing them in the wrong form and amount – either too low or too high – could negatively impact a bird's productivity. Achieving consistent delivery of an optimised level of trace minerals supports multiple essential functions in poultry, including the production and quality of eggs, reproduction and embryo development in layers and growth performance, and immune and oxidative response in broilers. Optimising the levels of minerals in feed can benefit overall health, immunity and oxidative response in birds.

Traditional inorganic trace minerals can bind feed antagonists, such as other minerals, fatty acids, vitamins, enzymes or phytate molecules. This can cause problems in the gut, impairing mineral absorption and promoting oxidation. Supplementing poultry diets with either hydroxy- or organic sources of trace minerals can increase the amount of biologically active minerals delivered to the entire length of the intestine, improving mineral absorption, performance parameters, gut health and carcass characteristics in broiler chickens.

When it comes to minerals, more is not always better. Excessive minerals can find their way into animal manure, which can, in turn, end up in soil and lead to environmental contamination. Over-dosing minerals is no guarantee for better outcomes. The best outcome results when the right sources of trace minerals are efficiently used at the right level to maintain the homeostasis of minerals in the animal.

Let me tell you something; broiler farming is one of the most lucrative aspects of poultry farming business. Their demands are high, and it's relatively cheaper to train broilers than other domestic birds. 

On average, it costs about N1,509 to nurture a broiler bird to maturity. This includes the cost of getting the chick, feeding, treatments, and other unplanned expenses. 

Again, try to be strategic with your poultry farming business. Always target the sales of your broilers and other birds towards the peak period. The peak period for the sales of domestic birds is; Christmas, New year, Easter, Sallah, etc. 

During these periods, the demand for poultry birds is very high. And if you understand the interplay of the law of demand and supply, you will know that price will increase. 

You could even sell a broiler as high as N4000 to N5000.  Do the Maths, if you are selling a broiler that costs you about N1,509 (Including the cost of buying the chick) to nurture at N4000, that's profitable, isn't it?

I think I have provided a good answer to the question "is poultry farming a profitable business". From what I said so far, you can see that if you are strategic in your approach, poultry is a profitable business. 

How To Increase The Profitability of Broiler Production

Like I promised earlier, this article will provide you with all the information you need about poultry farming for beginners. 

One of the reasons my answer to the question "is poultry farming a profitable business" is yes, is because I understand that with the right strategy, you will 'cash-out' real-time doing this business. 

If you are new to poultry farming, here are some tips on how to increase your profitability. 

#1. Don't Waste Your Feed 

One of the mistakes poultry farmers make is not doing anything about feed waste. You may think that feed doesn't cost much. But if you calculate the accumulated waste over time, you will be shocked. 

Ensure you invest in high quality feeds. Pay attention to quality instead of quantity. As a rule, don't stockpile feed. Stockpiling feed encourages waste, and you may end up spending more than necessary. 

#2. Don't Use one Feed For All Breed of Broilers

I know this may sound strange to you. But it's not advisable to use one feed for all broilers. Times are changing, and there are a series of developments in the poultry business. 

For instance, there are new breeds of broilers that consume less feed and grow faster. If you are rearing these birds, you must give them their specific meals. Otherwise, they may end up eating more without growing fast. 

Do you understand what I just explained? In a nutshell, broilers that grow faster and eat less, have their feed. If you aren't feeding them with it, they will not grow as expected. 

#3. Use Low-Cost Ingredients 

Don't allow anybody to deceive you. Feeding your broilers with high-cost ingredients won't change anything. Discuss with people who are currently into poultry farming; they will be able to guide you accordingly. 

#4. Be Strategic in Your Approach 

There's no way your poultry farming business will be profitable if you aren't strategic about it. Always target the sales of your birds towards major festive periods like Sallah, Easter, Christmas, New year, etc. 

How to Start a Poultry Farm in Nigeria 

Now that you have the answer to the question "is poultry farming a profitable business in Nigeria, I think it would be nice to understand how to start a poultry farm. 

But your poultry farming business can't succeed if you don't have a positive mindset and the skills. Even though poultry farming business has growth potential, you need to learn the skills. And understand the best way to care for the birds you are rearing. 

Here is a step by step process to start a poultry farm; 

#1. Choose the Type of Poultry Bird You Want to Rear 

Before you start a poultry farming business, you need to decide on the type of bird you want to rear. You can either rear birds for their meats or eggs. 

Generally, most poultry farmers in Nigeria rear one of the following domestic birds; 

Layers: If you are starting a poultry business because of commercial eggs production, you should consider layers. 

You can start rearing layers when they are one day old. Interestingly, they start laying eggs when they are about 18 to 19 years old. They will continue laying eggs till 72  to 78 weeks. 

Layer poultry farming in Nigeria is lucrative, and the market is large. After all, almost every household in Nigeria consumes eggs. The market is endless, and if you are strategic about it, you will earn a fortune from layer poultry farming. 

Broilers: Broiler production is one of the most profitable aspects of poultry farming in Nigeria. It involves rearing young males and female chicks for meat. Interestingly, when you manage your broilers very well, they could grow from 40 g (Hatch weight) to about 1.2 to 2kg within 6 weeks. 

Cockerels: Unlike broilers and layers, cockerels can easily survive in any environment. You can also sell them as meat. But they don't grow as fast as broilers. They cost more to rear, but their demand is high in the Nigerian market. 

If you have the means, you should consider rearing more than one type of bird. You can consider raising layers and broilers. But if you have limited resources, you can start with broilers, and add layers later. 

#2. Select a Location for the Farm 

Once you decide on the type of bird to rear, the next step is to choose a location. Sometimes, the location you site your poultry farm could contribute to its success or otherwise. 

Ideally, you should get a piece of land and build a spacious cage for your birds. The size of the land depends on the number of birds you want to rear. 

However, if you don't have the resources to buy land, you can build a space at the back of your house. 

By asking the question "is poultry farming a profitable business in Nigeria?" It's obvious you are a bit new to the business. Therefore, try to start small, learn from your mistakes, and expand as time goes on. 

Factors to Consider When Selecting a location for Your Poultry Farming Business in Nigeria

You don't just choose a location for your poultry business. It's important to make your decision based on certain factors. Some of them are; 

Nearness to neighbouring residence: Your poultry farm should be a bit far from a neighbouring residence. Of course, it shouldn't be too far so that people can come and patronize you. 

The prevailing wind direction in the neighbourhood

Nearness to an adequate source of water

Easy access to land for manure application

#3. Provide Good Housing and Shelter for the Birds 

The housing of your poultry birds is as important as the poultry farm itself. I hope you understand the previous statement? What I mean is that your poultry birds can't survive if you don't provide good housing and shelter for them. 

There are different housing designs you can construct for your birds, depending on the breeds. For instance, the housing design of a layers' poultry farm is different from that of a broiler. 

So, please do your research, discuss with experienced poultry farmers, they should be able to advise you on what to do. 

#4. Feeding and Medication Plans 

Before you start your poultry farming business, you need to have a feeding and medication plan for your birds. Generally, poultry birds are prone to infections. So, always feed them with nutritious, net, and dry food. 

It's not advisable to buy poultry birds' feeds in bulk. They need fresh food to survive. So, please give them a good meal and medication. 

However, try as much as possible to avoid waste. Remember, the lower your cost of nurturing a bird, the higher the profit. 

#5. Marketing and Sales Strategy

The previous points were the operational aspect of poultry farming. And here's a big deal. I'm sure you aren't rearing your birds to give people for charity. I don't think so. 

Try to have a marketing and sales strategy in place for your poultry business. That's what will differentiate you from the crowd. 

Like every other poultry farmer, you hope to get good sales after the harvest. Don't you? But you can't achieve this if you are doing the same thing every other person is doing. 

Instead of taking your birds or eggs to the market to sell like every other person, you can use a different approach. Here's how to market your poultry farm products; 

Build a strong online presence for your poultry farm

We are in the digital age. And you can add a touch of digital marketing to your poultry business. Build a brand around your poultry business online. Have a website, social media pages, and invest in digital advertising. 

I know what you are thinking. It will increase your operational cost. That's true, but in the long run, it will give you an edge over other people in the industry. 

You can even have an option where people can order online on your website. Or let them know on your social media pages that you do home delivery. 

Let me quickly tell you a story about my friend Ola. 

Ola and I did NYSC together. He studied Agriculture related courses. But he told me he was going to start a poultry farm after our NYSC in 2015. I didn't take him seriously; I thought he was joking. 

But he wasn't, he started a poultry farm immediately after we finished our service. Guess what? Ola is doing very well. He digitized his poultry farming business, and he has become one of the biggest poultry farmers in his state. 

You can be Ola! Start something little today; someone may use your success story as a testimony tomorrow. 

Market Your Products Directly to Hotels and Restaurants

Don't wait for people to come to you. Create a market and separate yourself from the crowd. It's easy. Identify major hotels, fast foods, and restaurants close to you, and offer to supply them chicken. 

Advertise Your Products 

You can also market your poultry products by advertising them. Contact popular influencers on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. They will charge you, but the result will be worth it. 

Employ a MarketerIf your poultry business is already doing well, try to employ a marketer to carry out aggressive marketing.  While you focus on the operational aspect of the business, the marketer will help you bring sales. 

How Much Does It Cost to Start a Poultry Farm in Nigeria?

Starting a poultry farm in Nigeria is relatively cheap. It doesn't require much capital. With as low as N50,000, you can start up something. This includes the cost of setting up a shelter for your birds as well as buying a day old chick. 

Interestingly, if you manage your poultry farm properly, you can get a 100% return from your capital. But you need to be consistent with nurturing your birds. Give them attention and shelter them in a neat environment. 

Layers vs Broilers, Which is More Profitable?

Beginners to poultry farming always want to know between layers and broilers, which is more profitable. Even though they already get the answer to the question "is poultry farming a profitable business", they still want to know which birds would be better for them. 

Broilers and layers are two types of poultry birds. They are reared for meat production. These birds grow very fast because of their strong genes. Within a few weeks, you can start selling your broiler birds. 

Layer birds, on the other hand, are reared for commercial egg production. Although they don't grow fast like broilers, they have genes that enable them to lay more eggs. 

The question now is between layer and broiler poultry farming, which is more profitable? Well, the answer to this question depends on certain factors which include; 

Startup Costs 

Generally, it's cost more to start up a layer of poultry farming in Nigeria compared to broilers. Unlike layers, within seven weeks, you can start selling your broilers and make your profit. 

Marketing

It's generally easier to market layers than broilers. You can market the eggs your layers produce or store them if there's no market for them. Broilers, on the other hand, aren't easy to market. 

Long term Revenue

While broilers only produce meat, layers produce both meat and eggs. After producing eggs in commercial quantity, you can decide to sell your layers for meat buy it here on oglasi. 

Generally, both broilers and layers are profitable. But if you aren't looking for a quick turn over on your capital, I think layers are more profitable in the long run.

Thailand Compound Feed Market Size by Type, By Distribution Channel, And Forecast till 2022-2031

The Thailand compound feed market was valued at USD 8,983.5 million in 2020, and it is projected to reach USD 11,967.6 million by 2031, witnessing a CAGR of 4.2% during the forecast period. Owing to the COVID-19, the imposition of stringent lockdown by the country’s government across the country has impacted the feed industry severely. Migration of man force resulted the industry to suffer huge labor crisis. The restricted movement resulted in delay on arrival of raw material, which also hampered the quality of the final produces. The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the country’s poultry industry. Farmers had to cope with the movement restrictions and paralyzed supply chains, leading to large inventories and falling prices. Many farmers and herders were forced to liquidate their assets in order to meet their needs. By animal type, the poultry segment is found to be the largest contributor to the domestic feed production. According to the USDA (2020), the production of broiler chicken meat in Thailand is expected to increase by 2-3% in 2021. The production of chicken meat is expected to grow further to fulfil the growing export demand as well. The growing domestic consumption and export demand of poultry meat is anticipated to drive the compound feed market in Thailand. In January 2020, the Thailand government has allocated a budget of USD 5.03 million under the Free Trade Agreement Fund for the Department of Livestock Development to help the beef cattle farmers increase their product quality and compete globally. This can increase the beef cattle feed production in the country.Therefore, the growing demand for beef and dairy products is expected to boost the demand for compound feed in the country during the forecast period. Key Market Trends Rising preferences for the Animal Sourced Food The demand for higher-value and quality foods, such as meat, eggs, and milk, is increasing, compared to plant-origin foods, such as cereals, owing to the rising demand for larger food varieties and more protein intake. The increasing awareness of the benefits of providing compound feed among growers fuels the demand for compound feed over forage or silage feed. The shift toward a protein-rich diet, owing to the rising health awareness and the rise in income levels among the population, drives the consumption of meat and other animal-based products. This has resulted in an increased demand for animal-based products, subsequently driving the production of livestock. This livestock is fed using novel methods and products, ensuring an optimum nutrition level and feed conversion ratio. To satisfy the demand of the meat processing industry, livestock farmers need to produce high-quality and hygienic meat, which is a big challenge. The expansion of the meat product industry has created an opportunity for compound feed, as these feeds boost immunity and enhance the performance of animals by stabilizing the rumen environment. Thus, the rising demand for animal-sourced foods may boost the Thailand compound feed market during the forecast period. Growing Poultry Industry Chicken is the most popular meat among Thai consumers, due to its lower prices than pork and beef and the diversity it offers in cooking methods and menu items. The domestic consumption in Thailand has a high growth potential due to the growing per capita consumption, the expansion in urbanization, and the increased trend of dining out. As per the APEDA, the Thai broiler industry turned profitable in 2019, due to the increased prices of all product chains, including chicken meat, live broilers, and day-old chicks. Despite a decline in chick production by independent breeders in early 2019, the lucrative prices drove the total broiler meat production in 2019 to grow by 4%, to 3.05 million metric ton. 

There are 10-12 integrated processors operating feed milling, day-old chick farming, broiler farming, and broiler meat processing. These players cover about 80% of the total broiler meat production in Thailand. The rest of the production is by independent broiler growers. Due to a sharp increase in broiler production, some of these independent broiler growers have built their own broiler slaughterhouses and developed domestic markets, so as to enable these domestic markets to absorb their increased supplies of live broilers. Thus, with the rising chicken meat consumption by domestic and international consumers, the Thai poultry industry is expanding, which is further driving the domestic market for compound feed. Competitive Landscape The Thai compound feed market is a moderately fragmented market, with major players holding a smaller share of the market as compared to other smaller players. Charoen Pokphand Foods PCL, Cargill Inc., and Alltech Inc. are some of the major players operating in this market. The players are expanding and investing in their businesses by adopting various strategies, such as mergers and acquisitions, expansions, partnerships, and product launches.

3-4T/H Chicken Feed Mill Plant for Our United Arab Emirates Customer

The poultry industry in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) holds significant importance within the country's livestock sector, primarily aimed at meeting the domestic demand for chicken meat and eggs. Poultry farming is typically categorized into two main types: broiler farming and egg-laying chicken farming.

In terms of broiler farming, chicken meat production in the UAE heavily relies on poultry farms equipped with modern facilities and management systems to ensure the growth and health of chickens. These farms vary in scale, ranging from small to large operations, and utilize various farming methods, including free-range and cage systems.

Regarding egg-laying chicken farming, the UAE also boasts a considerable number of egg production farms. These farms are dedicated to producing high-quality eggs to meet the domestic demand for egg products. Similar to chicken meat production, these farms often employ modern farming equipment and management techniques to enhance both yield and quality.

It's worth noting that the poultry industry in the UAE faces challenges due to the country's climate conditions and limited water resources. Challenges include the impact of high temperatures and arid environments on chicken growth, as well as issues related to feed and water supply. Therefore, the government and poultry industry stakeholders typically implement measures such as providing technical support, improving feed formulations, and enhancing water resource management to promote the sustainable development of the poultry industry.

Firstly, we opted for a high-performance feed grinder. This equipment efficiently grinds raw material particles into the desired powdered form, ensuring uniformity and digestibility of the feed. Subsequently, we introduced an advanced feed mixer capable of thoroughly blending different types and proportions of raw materials, ensuring nutritional balance and consistency in the feed. Additionally, we selected an efficient feed pelletizer capable of compressing the blended feed materials into uniform, visually appealing pellets, thereby enhancing the quality and stability of the feed.

To safeguard the quality of the feed pellets, we specifically chose an integrated feed cooling and sieving device. This equipment effectively cools and sifts the feed pellets during the production process, ensuring that they meet standardized appearance and texture requirements. Furthermore, to facilitate the client's sales and storage processes, we equipped the production line with an efficient feed packaging machine capable of packaging the feed pellets according to customer specifications, enhancing the overall efficiency of the production line.

In addition to the primary equipment, we provided the client with a range of auxiliary equipment, including electrical control panels, boilers, air compressors, and storage silos, to ensure the smooth operation of the entire production process. During the shipping phase, we implemented stringent quality control measures to ensure that all equipment was dispatched in optimal condition. To maximize cargo protection, we custom-designed packaging and protection measures suitable for container shipping, minimizing the risk of damage or loss during transit.

We are delighted to learn that the client has successfully received all goods and has expressed exceptionally high praise for the quality, performance, and reliability of our equipment. Their endorsement has earned our factory immense trust and acclaim. We remain committed to maintaining a close partnership with the client, continually optimizing our products and services, and making a greater contribution to the development of the feed production industry.

Defendants are accused of participation in the supply of horsemeat unfit for human consumption across the continent, with those accused coming from France, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands and Spain.

New Zealand is to introduce a tax on sheep and cattle burps in an attempt to tackle one of the country’s largest sources of greenhouse gases. It would be the first country in the world to charge farmers for the methane emissions from the animals they keep. There were more than 36 million sheep, beef and dairy cattle in New Zealand in 2020.

European agriculture ministers are pushing for acceptance of a vaccination against highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) in poultry. The disease, also known as bird flu, has spread widely across the continent during the past two years, with the EU set to explore the potential of using vaccines to prevent the spread, rather than culling.

Officials under former US president Donald Trump “collaborated” with the meatpacking industry to downplay the threat of Covid to plant workers and block public health measures that could have saved lives, a new investigation has found. Internal documents describe how industry representatives lobbied government officials to stifle “pesky” health departments from imposing evidence-based safety measures.

More than 3,000 cows in New Mexico have been culled after toxic pollution from a nearby US military base was found to have contaminated their water source.

The coalition of campaign groups called on the company to end its use of eggs produced in small cages across the continent. Meanwhile, McDonald’s shareholders have voted against a proposal to improve the treatment of pregnant pigs.

Researchers in China have reportedly developed a process to clone pigs entirely through the use of robots – a development that may help the world’s largest pork consumer reduce its reliance on imported breeding pigs.

The largest lab-grown meat plant in Asia is to be built in Singapore, opening next year. The country became the first government to allow the sale of lab-grown meat in 2020 and the new factory will be built by the US company Eat Just.

UK news

A third of migrant workers on UK fishing vessels who responded to a survey work 20-hour shifts, and around one-third reported regular physical violence, according to a new study.

A campaign group has urged councils to drop meat from school dinners at least two days a week, despite critics saying activists are “ignoring evidence”. Animal Rebellion claims to have persuaded one English council to agree to its demands, but Jeremy Miles, the education minister for Wales, insisted meat should always be on the menu.

Reducing stocking densities for broilers too quickly could threaten supplies of home-produced chicken, Tesco’s agricultural manager has warned. John Kirkpatrick said a move to increase the space given to chickens could reduce the amount of British poultry produced, it was reported.

The UK’s biggest cheesemaker is set to receive a large fine after it admitted pollution and odour charges. Dairy Crest – which is owned by the Canadian firm Saputo, and makes brands including Cathedral City – admitted 21 pollution incidents, which led to fish dying in the River Inny in Cornwall.

Danish mink breeders have turned their backs on the industry en masse after being forced to cull their animals over fears a Covid-19 mutation could pose a risk to humans. In November 2020, Denmark announced it would cull approximately 15 million animals, with the government temporarily banning mink farming and breeding for fur until 2023.

Iceland is under pressure to ban the production of a hormone extracted from pregnant horses, a practice that has been described as cruel and “animal abuse”. Pregnant Mare Serum Gonadotropin (PMSG) is used by farmers in the UK and Europe to increase reproduction in pigs, cows and other female farm animals. Animal welfare campaigners visiting farms discovered broken restraint boxes and enclosures covered in bite marks, which they claimed was a sign of anxious horses.

Consumers could be hit with higher egg prices as UK farmers reduce their flock numbers, in response to escalating costs and insufficient profit margins. The numbers of chicks being placed by egg producers in April was down 15% year on year, according to the latest government figures.

The low price of wool is pushing farmers to opt for moulting sheep, with shearing now costing more than the wool is worth. Farmers are switching to breeds that shed their own fleeces, and wool is seen as an optional extra to the meat that brings in the bulk of their income.

The US poultry industry has increasingly switched to “the most inhumane method available” to cull tens of millions of birds during the latest outbreak of avian influenza, according to government data. Outbreaks of the disease have led to 38 million birds being killed in the US so far this year.

In response to our story on the low price of sheep wool, John Brice wrote:

I suggest farmers use sheep for milk. I try to buy sheep cheese in the UK and the only ones available are French or Spanish Manchego. It has a lovely delicate flavour. I would definitely buy British ewes cheese if it were available. This is one easy way out of the wool price crash – although maybe not easy because it requires investment and expertise, which can be acquired or imported.
