Clean Poultry Hatcheries Produce Healthy Chicks

The hatchery, as a segment of the poultry production chain, aims to produce vital chicks that are free of pathogens. Good cleaning and disinfection (C&D) procedures within the hatchery are necessary to reduce and continually minimize the level of microbiological contamination, and subsequently the risk of microbiological contamination in the building, machinery, eggs and poults.
