Deep dives

The Challenge of Delayed Information in Poultry Production

Delayed information poses significant challenges in poultry production, particularly when test results arrive too late to impact decisions. For instance, microbiological tests may take 24 to 36 hours, by which point conditions may have changed, rendering the information less relevant. This emphasis on timing underlines the need for real-time insights that can guide immediate decision-making. Therefore, a risk perspective that incorporates past data and trends could help predict the current state of production facilities more effectively.
