Uniformity

Grading according to body weight

One of the most important indicators for the quality of broiler breeder rearing is the uniformity of the flock. This is ensured by an optimal flock management: adequate and needs-based feeding, a simultaneous start of lay and as a result, a higher laying performance level of the entire flock. Grading broiler breeder flocks in different weight-based groups is a reliable method to achieve more uniformity in the flock and will result in a better overall performance.

With its patented technique, GRADY allows this labor-intensive process to be made more effective and efficient. In addition, with GRADY it is possible that birds get vaccinated as part of the grading process. This saves time, improves job quality and reduces the number of occasions the birds have to be handled.
