this article covers the importance of poultry farming in agriculture, its
role in ensuring food safety and the development characteristics of modern poultry
industries.
Keywords:
poultry, food safety, hot climate, poultry factory, productivity.
Poultry farming is one of the important branches of Agriculture and has occupied
a special place in ensuring food security in humanity since ancient times. To date, modern
poultry farming is one of the areas with high economic efficiency, along with the
production of high-quality meat and egg products. There are many external factors that
influence the development of poultry. Including Will directly depend on weather
conditions. Hot climate conditions significantly affect the growth, productivity, and health
of poultry. Poultry is the fastest maturing dietary bop food, rich in proteins and essential
amino acids. Poultry meat and eggs are characterized by light digestion, richness in
protein, high biological value, and low cost compared to other types of animal meat.
Therefore, poultry farming in many countries is one of the main sources of satisfying the
population's need for protein. The poultry industry also serves as a stable source of income
for small farms and large industrial enterprises. The poultry industry is also well
developed in our country. In factories, the production process is mechanized. Each
poultry farm consists of breeding (male and female) and egg-laying birds, chick hatching
(incubation) departments, as well as egg and meat production and waste processing
facilities. Chickens on poultry farms are kept in special cages; to prevent feed from
becoming contaminated, feeders and drinkers are placed outside the cages on attached
troughs. Special devices in the facility regulate temperature, humidity, and day length. In
winter, the building is artificially illuminated; when the days become longer, hens lay
more eggs. Chicks are hatched in special incubators. The growth and productivity of
poultry largely depend on environmental conditions, particularly the weather. A hot

climate or summer season creates certain advantages as well as difficulties for
poultry farming. In hot weather, birds slightly reduce feed intake and increase their
demand for water. This is a physiological response aimed at maintaining heat exchange
and thermoregulation in their bodies. When the temperature rises above 30°C, the
respiratory rate of birds increases, which helps lower their div temperature. At the same
time, in hot weather it is necessary to create a comfortable microclimate for poultry,
meaning a well-established ventilation system and adequate water supply. One of the
positive aspects of hot weather is the abundance of natural light and the wider
opportunities for birds to walk in open spaces, which can improve their overall health and
productivity. However, in excessively hot conditions, heat stress may occur, leading to
reduced growth rates, a decline in egg production, and sometimes even mortality.
Therefore, in hot weather, it is important to follow biosecurity rules, control the
microclimate in poultry houses, and take measures to protect birds from heat stress.Figure

CONCLUSION
Weather conditions, particularly hot climates, play an important role in the
successful rearing of poultry. Proper management of hot weather increases the efficiency
of poultry farming, improves product quality, and generates economic benefits.
Therefore, creating a comfortable microclimate for poultry, preventing heat stress, and
implementing scientifically based measures for proper care are of great importance for
the sustainable development of the poultry industry.
