Adoption rates of precision livestock farming (PLF) technologies have risen drastically in the last 20 years, with more farmers investing in technology equipped with the ability to measure and monitor physiological and behavioural traits of animals with tremendous accuracy. This is increasingly important following rising consumer and stakeholder concerns regarding the welfare of farmed animals.

Advances in precision poultry farming technologies provides a comprehensive overview of the main PLF technologies deployed within the poultry sector, ranging from the use of remote and wearable sensors to monitor behaviour and welfare, to precision feeding and the use of technologies to prevent and detect disease in poultry flocks. The book also discusses the range of technologies used to monitor the poultry farm and environment.

The book provides a comprehensive overview of recent advances in the use of precision livestock farming technologies in the poultry sector, focussing on technologies designed to monitor poultry behaviour and welfare, as well the wider farm environment.
