Project Specifics

The project's core focus is on data-driven risk assessment and welfare monitoring for broilers (fast and slower growing).
The expected deliverables are highly specific: standardized data collection protocols, actual field data collection, and the creation of a comprehensive dataset including Animal Based Measures, resource-based measures, and management-based measures.
The grant aims to address a current knowledge gap in this specific area.
