Produktbeschreibung

Diploma Thesis from the year 2023 in the subject Agrarian Studies, , course: Animal Health and Production, language: English, abstract: The aim of this study was to assess poor hatchability of poultry in Savelugu in the Savelugu municipality of the Northern region, Ghana. The study will adopt the survey design to administer questionnaires to 55 poultry producers to collect relevant data. Data will be analysed using SPSS V26. The research highlights the significant role of artificial incubation and rearing in aviculture to boost reproductive rates, especially in endangered species. It emphasizes how artificial incubation impacts performance in modern poultry farming, with a focus on quality chicks. Despite advancements in incubator technology, artificial incubation remains a challenge, particularly compared to natural incubation. The study points out how critical factors like temperature, humidity, and egg turning can influence incubation success rates. In Ghana, where the poultry industry contributes significantly to the economy, there is a lack of standardized procedures for producing quality chicks, leading to high mortality rates and low hatchability. This study focuses on Savelugu to gain better understanding of the issue and potential solutions.
