- The poultry industry is an important component of Agricultural
sector
- There is environmental issues and challenges confronting the poultry
industry
- Poultry litter and manure, spilt feed and decaying birds are all
potential sources of nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus
- Nutrient enrichment can cause algal blooms leading to the death of
fish and other aquatic fauna, odour problems and midge problems.
Excessive levels of nitrogen as nitrate or ammonia can make the water
unsuitable for human or animal consumption
- Nutrients from poultry litter/manure should not be allowed to leach
into the environment, either directly from sheds or during any storage
prior to removal.
- Poultry housing systems may involve the raising of birds in cages or
on litter.
- In caged systems, droppings fall through the bottom of the cage to
accumulate on the floor below or onto conveyor
belts.
- In litter-based systems, birds are kept on 50 to 100 millimeters
depth of sawdust, wood shavings or other absorbent material over a
sealed floor. Formulated feed is provided via automated delivery systems
and drinking water is reticulated to the birds.
