ABSTRACT We investigated the influence of poultry rearing factors, including strain, type of ventilation, and sex on the slaughter characteristics of broiler chickens. Factorial analysis of mixed data was employed to analyze the data from broiler flocks slaughtered between 2018 and 2020 in Mato Grosso do Sul, comprising 2,684 flocks and 82,486,500 birds. The characterization information considered included age at slaughter, average weight, date of slaughter, percentage of pododermatitis, percentage of scratches, percentage of pre-slaughter condemnations, percentage of slaughter condemnations, […]

The experiment was carried out to compare the performance of two Nile Tilapia strains (Thai and common) during the initial and growing phases. The fishes (50 in the starting phase and 40 in the growing phase) were assigned to a completely randomized design with two treatments and five replications. Better results were observed for the weight gain percentage, daily weight gain, feed:gain ratio and economic viability in both experimental phases, survival in the starting phase and final size in the […]
