Organic poultry production has increased significantly in recent
years to keep up with increasing consumer demand for organic eggs
and meat. There are many guidelines and restrictions on what should
go into the feed of organically-farmed poultry, from which
difficulties arise when trying to ensure a well-balanced nutritious
diet without the use of any unapproved supplements. This, the
second edition of Robert Blair's classic and bestselling book on
the nutrition and feeding of organic poultry, presents advice for
organic producers, and the agencies and organizations serving them.
It covers: - Selecting suitable ingredients. - Preparing
appropriate feed mixtures and integrating them into organic poultry
production systems. - International standards for organic feeding.
- Breeds that are most suitable for organic farming. - Examples of
diets formulated to organic standards. Completely updated and
revised to address how to formulate organic diets in situations
where there is a declining supply of organic feed, this new edition
also includes up-to-date information on the nutritional
requirements of poultry and feed-related disease incidence in
organic flocks. Also including the feasibility of utilizing novel
feed, such as insect meal, and their acceptability by consumers of
organic meat products, this book forms a comprehensive reference
for students, organic farmers, veterinarians and researchers.
