CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION TO THE POULTRY
PROCESSING INDUSTRY
Poultry Production
As poultry production is a prime example of a vertically integrated agricultural industry, with
intensive rearing systems of birds of efficient feed conversion ratios and products of handy
size and ready marketability, it is not surprising that it is currently showing the strongest
growth in output of any category of meat. World-wide, it is a huge industry. Estimates of
poultry populations are detailed in Table 1. The largest increase in poultry populations
between 1979 and 1989 are in N&C America, S America & Asia. As a general rule, poultry
populations in developing countries are rising at a faster rate than in developed countries.

Because poultry has a very short life cycle and poultry products are traded internationally,
data on regional flock sizes are difficult to interpret. Estimates of world poultry meat
production in metric tonnes are detailed in Table 2.
The largest increase in poultry meat production took place in S America, particularly in the
mid 1980's. The increase in developing countries has generally been higher than in developed
countries but the impact is reduced because the increase in human population has been
greater. Poultry production is three times population growth in developed countries but only
double population growth in less developed countries.

Poultry Consumption
Estimates of world poultry consumption are detailed in Table 3. Levels of poultry
consumption are increasing throughout the world and the increase in developing countries is
about double the world average. This has been achieved through increased local production
which has kept pace with demand.

The recommended average daily intake of protein is 0.6g/kg body weight or 12–60g per day
depending on age and weight. Poultry products such as chicken have a high protein content.
Table 4 shows the % protein content of some common foods and their consumption. The table
shows that the less developed countries appear to consume sufficient protein. A better
interpretation would be that there is sufficient protein available for all to eat. In practice,
protein distribution is skewed in Idc's so that some areas have plenty whereas others have
very little.

Although this document concerns slaughter and processing for meat production, poultry are
also kept for their eggs. Eggs are a highly versatile food containing many essential nutrients.
They are classified in the same protein food group as meat, poultry and fish (see Table 4). In
developed countries per capita consumption of eggs has remained almost static over the last
ten years but in less developed countries has risen by 37%, about 1.5 times faster than
population growth. This has been achieved through improvements in local production rather
than increased importation. This indicates a sharp increase in poultry husbandry skills and
readiness to undertake intensive production. The flocks used for both table and hatchery egg
production are found in significant numbers and eventually end up at poultry processing
plants.

The outlook for world poultry production is for continued strong growth. Poultry production
is projected to continue to expand in N&C America and the EC. Further growth in Asia,
particularly Thailand, is expected as a result of strong demand from Japan and the
development of the EC market. Growing domestic demand in Brazil & China should result in
higher production levels. In the old Soviet Bloc and eastern Europe, production is projected to
fall as a result of reorganisation following market liberalisation. Demand in less developed
countries will continue to grow at least apace with population.

Poultry Rearing Systems
There are many species and breeds of poultry which are used by man. Some are of more
importance than others. The domestic chicken ( Gallus domesticus ) has assumed World-wide
importance and accounts for more than 90% of the world's poultry flocks. Ducks account for
about 5% of the world's poultry flocks and turkeys for about 2%. Table 6 details % world
distribution of the three most important poultry species during 1989.
Other poultry species of lesser world importance are geese, guinea fowl, doves, pigeons,
pheasants, quail and ostriches. It is estimated that together these species account for less than
3% of the world's poultry flocks.

Poultry raising is classified into intensive or extensive systems. Where movement is restricted
and birds are kept close together at elevated temperatures, broilers grow rapidly to market
weight. In these intensive rearing conditions chickens (broilers) are ready for slaughter in 8–
12 weeks and weigh 1.6–1.8 kg. Ducks or ducklings are ready in 8–12 weeks and weigh 1.7–4
kg. Turkeys are ready in 12–30 weeks and weigh 4.5–15 kg.
Intensive rearing systems are usually constructed on hen houses of 8 × 25m which contain
1000 birds per unit. Each producer has many units and contracts to sell his birds at a given
weight on a given day. His day - old chicks, feed supplier, veterinarian, transport of birds to
the abattoir etc are all programmed to meet a predefined production schedule. These intensive
systems are highly programmable, predictable and cost effective.
The intensive system of poultry production prevents or minimises exposure to natural
conditions. The extensive system permits the fullest exposure to natural conditions. Where the
flock is allowed a free range, feed inputs are used by the bird for exercise and maintenance of
body temperature before meat production. Social interaction and the stresses of everyday life
use up food energy. This may be regarded as an inefficient production system.
Where extensive systems are practised, the birds are left to scratch for food. This appears
cheaper than intensive systems but slaughter weight/time is much more difficult to predict and
the system generally can not be used as a basis of contract between producer and meat packer.
In the developed world it is estimated that in excess of 95% of the worlds poultry flocks are
reared under intensive conditions. In the developing world the extensive systems are the most
usual practices. While this may be due, in some instances, to a lack of poultry management
skills, knowledge, infrastructure, capital etc, it may be a natural reaction to the tropical
climate.
Poultry have an internal body temperature between 41.2 and 42.2°C, which is about 2–3°C
higher than that of mammals. Chicks have a body temperature about 2–3°C lower than that of
an adult bird but the adult temperature is reached within about a week of hatching. The major
problem poultry have when exposed to temperature extremes is to maintain efficient
functioning of their metabolic processes. The relatively high body temperature maintained by
poultry means that they are significantly more vulnerable to extremes of heat. This is because
they maintain a body temperature only 3–5°C below the temperature at which protein
inactivation starts. In poultry production, birds kept within the range 21–26°C at humidities
within the range 50–90% will give the highest levels of food conversion into growth.
However, at higher temperatures (about 30°C) humidities within the range 30–70% have been
shown to reduce growth rate.
