Using artificial intelligence to improve poultry productivity – a review

A recent study investigated the potential applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in poultry farming. One area where AI can be helpful is in the early detection of diseases. By analyzing data from various sources, such as sensor readings and health records, AI algorithms can identify potential disease outbreaks or health risks in flocks, allowing farmers to take timely preventive measures. Another area where AI can be applied is in controlling the environmental conditions of farms. By analyzing data from sensors that monitor temperature, humidity, ventilation, and lighting conditions, AI algorithms can help farmers create a comfortable and healthy environment for birds, improving their growth and reducing their stress. AI can also optimize the management of healthcare supplies for poultry. By analyzing the nutritional requirements of birds and the availability and prices of different ingredients, AI algorithms can help farmers optimize feed formulations, reducing waste and environmental impacts. Finally, the study explored the use of robots in poultry care. Robots can be used for cleaning, feeding, and monitoring individual birds. By automating these tasks, farmers can reduce labor costs and improve the efficiency of their operations. Overall, the study highlights the potential benefits of using AI and robotics in poultry farming, including early disease detection, improved environmental conditions, optimized feed formulations, and increased automation.
