Features: This book is a professional guide on broiler chicken farming management and disease prevention, consisting of 13 chapters. The introductory section outlines the establishment and main principles of the "Golden Chicken Model" of chicken farming. Chapters 1 to 4 provide a brief overview of the evolutionary process of broiler chicken breeding, while introducing breeds, pre-starter preparation, and a series of practical techniques covering the entire process from chicks entering the shed to slaughter. It also addresses common issues encountered during farming. Chapters 5 to 10 discuss the conditions required for broiler growth, production characteristics, physiological traits, biological features, nutritional needs, common feedstuffs, and new technologies. The new trend of "old diseases not eradicated, new diseases emerging" in current avian disease outbreaks is addressed in Chapter 11, where various prevalent diseases are elaborated on along with specific prevention, diagnosis, and treatment methods. Since poultry farming cannot be separated from medications, indiscriminate drug use can lead to drug residues and increased costs. Therefore, Chapter 12 covers common poultry drugs, susceptibility testing, and compatibility precautions. Chapter 13 introduces differential diagnosis methods for common broiler diseases, with detailed and clear content.
