The performance objectives are an estimate of the


results that can be achieved under conditions found in
large commercial operations.
In very favourable conditions, such as those found with
very small flock sizes and where there is ample
housing, optimum ventilation and feed availability, the
results achieved could exceed the goals significantly.
The goals apply to temperate conditions.
Results will be depressed in the summers of countries
with Mediterranean or tropical climates.
Nutrition has a major influence on performance.
The basis of the goals presume diets following
Aviagen Turkeys (B.U.T.) recommendations, fed as good
quality crumbs, mini pellets and pellets in accordance
with our latest guidelines.
As performance can be affected by various factors
existing in particular operations, these goals (or advice)
cannot and should not be regarded as a form of
guarantee and Aviagen Turkeys Limited accepts no
liability in relation to your use of this information.
