Abstract
In this research, we have experimentally confirmed the advantage of the cage technology of growing broilers over traditional on floor technology regarding the efficiency of using existing production areas. This advantage is especially obvious when there is a need for a rapid increase in the production of broiler meat without the construction of new poultry houses or farms. In experiments with growing 3 batches of chickens in cage batteries (59.9-60.8 thousand eggs) until reaching 38 days of age, 92.5-93.0 kg of broiler meat (in live weight) has been got from each meter of the square total area of the poultry houses, that is almost 2 times more than in the control (51.6 kg / m2 with traditional cultivation on the floor, on a deep non-replaceable bedding). The production efficiency index for broiler meat also turned out to be higher in terms of cage technology. The studies were carried out in the conditions of the modern industrial poultry complex of Ukraine on the chickens of cross-country "Cobb-500". Depending on the group, they were grown at a standard density in cage batteries or on the floor of poultry houses. The body weight of chickens in the 38-day-old age varied within 2323-2464 g, in the 42-day period it was within 2560-2813 g, their safety was within 97.0-98.3 %.
