Mechanical harvesting of broilers

open access: yesPoultry Science, 1998
At the end of the growout phase of broiler production essentially all broilers are caught and loaded into coops or cages entirely by hand. The catching of broilers remains one of the few aspects of broiler production not yet automated. Vacuum systems, permanent conveyors recessed in the floors of growout facilities, collecting mats, scoops, and self ...
