ANALIZA COMPARATIVA IN INGRASAREA PUILOR BROILERI IN FUNCTIE DE MARIMEA SERIEI

The paper aimed to present a comparative analysis in broilers fattening by series size. The experiments were carried out at Breading Prod Commercial Company for two series of broilers as follows: Series S , Spring 2008, resulting 66,000 delivered fattened chickens at the age of 45 days and 2.36 kg live weight and Series S2 , Autumn 2008, delivering 68,400 fattened chickens at the age of 48 days and 2.64 kg live weigh . Series S1 produce 151,087 kg live weight, meaning 37.77 kg live weight per square meter fattening block while Series S2 registered 174,256 total live weight at delivery, meaning 43.56 kg per square meter. The higher the series size, the higher performance in broilers fattening. The only negative aspect was the length of fattening, which in case of S2 was by 3 days longer. In case, fodder consumption was 21.01 % higher than in case of S1 with a deep impact on production cost.
