Features: China's poultry industry has rapidly developed since the reform and opening-up, becoming a world-leading poultry power. However, with the introduction of high-quality breeds and large-scale promotion, the degree of large-scale, intensive, and factory-style poultry production has been increasing, placing higher demands on feeding management and disease prevention and control. As domestic and international trade channels have multiplied, expanded, and become more frequent, many new diseases and the spread of diseases have emerged, with disease manifestations becoming increasingly complex. Due to the increase in poultry numbers and the worsening of environmental pollution in breeding, higher requirements have been placed on disease prevention and control. Diseases continue to threaten the poultry industry. Due to the intensive and factory-style production of the poultry industry, chickens completely rely on artificially provided environments and feed, which has raised higher requirements for management and feed formulation. To achieve good economic benefits in poultry farming, it is essential to master feeding management and disease prevention and control techniques. Addressing the challenges currently faced by the poultry industry, this book has been compiled in the hope of meeting the technical needs of breeders. This book focuses on introducing daily management and disease prevention and control techniques for chickens.
