Controlling rodents and insects on a farm requires an integrated approach that focuses on the following steps;
1) Sanitation.
2) Exclusion, and targeted control measures.
Oftenly, these referred to as Integrated Pest Management (IPM).
Use of weather resistant bait stations and their regular monitoring.
Eliminate shelter and discourage trash.
Use of poisons or right choice of rodenticides.

A sudden drop in poultry feed intake (anorexia) is typically caused by;
Acute environmental stress.
Disease outbreaks, or rapid changes to the feed itself.
Since feed intake is the single-most important factor in growth and production, a sudden drop requires immediate investigation.

Depending upon purpose, it may be meat breed as well as egg laying.
-
Ventilation and Airflow
House environment
Feed allocation
Feed ration
Feed offering time
Insulation and draft control

Darkling beetles are dangerous for the poultry indirectly as well as directly which reduces production efficiency of the bird.
We strictly follow alternative insecticide program.
Cravices should be eliminated from the house.
Litter moisture must be addressed.

First week is much more important because this is the stage from where bird will start developing its frame and accelarating its body weight.
Surplus provision of adequate feed and water.

Adequate supply of feed and fresh drinking water.
Temperature and humidity monitoring.
Crop fill assessment within first 24 hours.
Chick behaviour.
Keep the house illuminated

<div>1. Immediate Action (Hydration and Support).</div></div>
2. Check Temperature and Ventilation.
3. Check for any disease diagnosis.
4. Inspect water system or trace leaky sites.
5. Examine Litter Condition.
6. Review Feed Formulation.

The first 35 days of broiler production are the most critical period for vaccination, as it establishes early active immunity against highly contagious diseases that would otherwise cause high mortality, poor growth, and significant economic losses.

There are a lot of factors which optimise efficiency of the bird with respect to its space (density) like;
Feeding space, drinker space, number of sufficient amount of feeding and drinking equipments.

Biosecurity starts with the following; 1) Clean-out and disinfection.

4) Perimeter Hygiene.
5) Selection of healthy chick source.
6) Suitable Vaccination Program execution.
7) Line of Separation.
8) visitors control.
9) Regular Monitoring
10) Disinfection stations like footdip, hand wash, hand sanitization and vehicle dip.
