Biokorma for chickens

Hatchability and fertility are two of the most important economic performance indicators for all types of poultry breeding farm.

Performance will depend on the value of the chicks and will therefore be significantly higher for pedigree breeding stock. For broiler breeders a change in hatchability of 1 should result in an additional 1.5 chicks per breeder per year. This could have a financial value equivalent to 9 euros per tonne of feed which can change the profitability by up to 0.45 euros per bird.
