[Poultry meat production with varying densities in raising the broilers].
Tests were carried out at two densities of raising the broilers on productional premises--16.6 and 23.6 per 1 m2 of flooring. Both the prophylactic programme and the conditions of tending and feeding were one and the same on the premises used. Each one of these was supplied with a cell in which birds were kept at the same density value as that on the other premise. Thus, four groups were formed in all: I--broilers kept at the rate of 16.6 per sq. m, II--broilers raised on the premise at 23.6/m2, III--broilers kept in a cell at 16.6 on the same premise where the other birds were kept at 23.6, and IV--broilers kept at 23.6 per sq. m. on the premise where the rate concerning the other birds was 16.6. The basic integral indices of the production effectiveness as well as the bioconversion of the dietary amino acids were followed up. It was found that during the transitional period the lower productional results with the broilers raised at higher densities were due to the action of biotic factors, and, more specifically, to the changes in the homotypical reactions that were the result of the higher density of raising. In the summer season the pesimal effect produced was a complex one, including not only the biotic factors but also the unfavourable action of the temperature and humidity regime.
