Total production can count on about 400 million chickens per year and 30 million turkeys; these numbers allow us to be completely self-sufficient. The sector is currently almost entirely represented by farms in an integrated supply chain of which AIA is the main player. Integrated supply chain means total control of the production process starting from the purchase of the reproducers, passing through the collection and incubation of the eggs, up to the breeding and withdrawal of the adult animals. Particular attention is paid to the selection of the highest quality raw materials that allow us to provide our animals with balanced and safe food, formulated for each stage of breeding. All these processes are supported by technicians and veterinarians who carry out their activity with commitment and dedication, collaborating with the breeder to maximize the zooeconomic results. The experience gained directly within the integrated farms has allowed us, over the years, to improve the offer of technical solutions (design and management of plants, formulation of personalized food plans) also available to our customers. The ultimate goal is to guarantee, through total control of the supply chain, the quality of the meat intended for consumption. The panorama of the sector is completed by the breeding of cockerels, capons, guinea fowls and ducks. collaborating with the farmer to maximize the zooeconomic results.

BREEDING GUIDELINES Before the birds arrive at the farm, the structures (modern sheds, tunnels, simple covered spaces) must always have been adequately cleaned and, where possible, disinfected. The environments should be prepared at least 24 hours before arrival, guaranteeing an ambient temperature (measured at the height of the animals) of about 30 ° C and a relative humidity of around 60-70%. At the time of placement, the birds must always find plenty of feed (in the feeders and on paper strips placed on the litter) and clean, fresh water. The bedding must be made of absorbent, soft and insulating material (wood chips, chopped straw, rice husk, etc.), distributed evenly over the entire surface and with a height of at least 8-10 cm. Wet or packed litter should be immediately removed and / or properly milled. The lighting must be uniform and of such intensity as to help the chicks to identify the water and feed. In the first 6-7 days it should be maintained for at least 22-23 hours a day: in the following ones the period of light must be gradually decreased, as well as the ambient temperature. Draft and sudden changes in temperature must always be avoided. Check, especially in the first days of life, that the animals feed and take water continuously, trying to ensure the best possible state of well-being (number of animals per square meter, temperature, ventilation, state of the litter, etc.).
