**5. New proposals for poultry farming**

• Chicken Farm (Meat Production) The broiler industry's sole goal is to raise chickens for their meat. Day-old chicks must be raised into adult birds until they have gained the proper weight and are prepared to be culled and sold.

• Farm - layer (Egg Production) In the layer sector, specialized hatcheries nurture birds to the point of lay before supplying them to egg producers, who are typically located close to feed sources and markets [43].
