Abstract

The purpose. To determine the economic efficiency o f rearing o f young breeder turkeys on regenerated litter, processed by the developed methods. Methods. Zoohygienic (study o f microclimate parameters), zootechnical (study o f poultry zootechnical indicators), visual observations (study o f indicators o f litter quality and poultry welfare), statistical (statistical data processing) and economic (calculations o f economic efficiency). The used litter regeneration methods included its pasteurization by the method o f biothermal composting, the addition o f a special microbiological preparation and disinfection o f the surface o f the pile with ozone - the 1st method, or ultraviolet radiation (UVR) irradiation - the 2nd method. Results. It was established that during the entire period o f growing repair young turkeys, the operational properties o f litter regenerated by both methods corresponded to its functional purpose as litter material. However, at the same time, in the air o f the poultry houses, compared to the room in which the young were raised on fresh bedding, the ammonia content was increased: at the beginning o f the growing period, it was 5.3 times - when using the bedding regenerated according to the 1st method (p-0,05) and 6.1 times - when using bedding regenerated according to the 2nd method (p-0.05); at the end o f the growing period by 1.2 times (p-0.05), which, however, did not exceed the MPC in all cases. Growing repair young turkeys on regenerated litter did not have a negative effect on the welfare and zootechnical parameters o f the poultry. The same indicators did not have significant differences fo r different litter regeneration methods. The use o f regenerated litter instead offresh litter provided a 3.7-fold reduction in litter costs when using the 1st regeneration method and 4.1 times when using the 2nd regeneration method. Economic effect per 1 goal. when growing repair young turkeys on litter regenerated by the 1st method amounted to 19.59 UAH, regenerated by the 2nd method - 15.97 UAH. Conclusions. Growing repair young turkeys on litter regenerated using the developed methods did not lead to a deterioration in the welfare and productive indicators o f the bird and, in addition, contributed to an increase in its economic efficiency.

Key words: turkeys, young breeder, rearing, bedding, multiple use o f bedding, ammonia, poultry welfare, zootechnical indicators, economic efficiency.
