Heat Stress Management in Poultry

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Heat stress is a major concern in poultry production, particularly in regions with hot climates or during summer months. As poultry, especially chickens, lack sweat glands, they are highly susceptible to heat stress. It can lead to significant economic losses due to decreased productivity, poor feed efficiency, reduced egg production, compromised immune function, and increased mortality. Therefore, effective heat stress management is essential for maintaining the health and productivity of poultry.
