“…Indeed, study samples vary greatly. They are often small, or the method of selection has not been properly detailed in the papers, suggesting the use of a convenience sample (Ansong-Danquah 1987, Fries Kobe 1993, Herenda Jakel 1994, Jakob and others 1998, Santana and others 2008). The epidemiological scale used to estimate condemnation rates also differs depending on the study: most calculate this indicator at slaughterhouse scale, whereas others express it at flock scale (Fries Kobe 1993, Yogaratnam 1995, Klopfenstein Lahaye 1999).…”

Rates of and reasons for condemnation of poultry carcases: harmonised methodology at the slaughterhouse

et al. 2017

European hygiene regulations require the condemnation of any unsafe food. However, there is little information identifying and quantifying condemnation of poultry carcases at slaughterhouses. We present an in-depth view of rates of and reasons for the condemnation of broiler, turkey, meat and force-feeding duck, guinea fowl carcases in France. The experiment was conducted in 10 slaughterhouses. For one year, all condemnations were recorded on a standard form following a national reference system. The rates of and reasons for condemnation, as well as factors influencing variation were investigated. The global condemnation rates were 1.04 per cent for broilers, 1.85 per cent for turkeys, 1.23 per cent for meat ducks, 1.42 per cent for force-feeding ducks and 1.20 per cent for guinea fowl. Condemnation rates depended on several factors including slaughterhouse, animal gender and season. Reasons for condemnation varied with species, for example, the three main reasons for broilers were cachexia (41.8 per cent of condemned batches), generalised congestion (29.3 per cent) and non-purulent cutaneous lesions (14.2 per cent) versus conformation abnormalities (58.6 per cent), cachexia (14.61 per cent) and ascites (14.56 per cent) for meat ducks. While the condemnation rates can be considered low for all species, the difference between the rates of and reasons for condemnation highlights the need to lead species-specific epidemiological studies to improve the sanitary situation of poultry production.

“…A certain number of individuals from each flock may be rejected in the slaughterhouse due to status as a result of poor welfare conditions, such as abnormal levels of contact dermatitis, parasitism or systemic illness in the house [21]. Other causes for rejection include infectious diseases such as colisepticaemia [37], skin injuries such as cellulite or dermal squamous cell carcinoma [38], and fractures or bruises [39]. Furthermore, the tasks performed in the slaughterhouse phase may also result in the rejection of the animal, such as contamination produced by evisceration [39].…”

As a consequence of the projected world population growth, world meat consumption is expected to grow. Therefore, meat production needs to be improved, although it cannot be done at any cost. Maintaining the health and welfare status of animals at optimal levels has traditionally been a main concern of farmers, and more recently, consumers. In this article the Poultry Chain Management (PCM) platform is presented. It aims at collecting data across the different phases of the poultry production chain. The collection of this data not only contributes to determine the quality of each phase and the poultry production chain as a whole, but more importantly, to identify critical issues causing process inefficiencies and to support decision-making towards the holistic improvement of the production chain. Results showed that the information gathered can be exploited to make different suggestions to guarantee poultry welfare, and ultimately, improve the quality of the meat.

“…Ensuring the health of slaughter poultry is of great importance in securing healthy food, since poultry meat is characterized by constantly increasing consumption (Fehlhaber, 1996). According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), global poultry production has grown steadily over the past 30 years, from 7.47 million tonnes in 1970 to 40 million tonnes at the end of the 20 th century (Santana et al, 2008). In 2014, Poland became the largest poultry meat producer in the EU, further reinforcing its position xx xx on the market in the following years.…”

The aim of the study was to analyse the results of official post-mortem inspections of hens, chickens, turkeys, ducks and geese carried out in poultry slaughterhouses in Poland by the Veterinary Inspection in 2016–2019. The data from the sanitary and veterinary survey were taken from annual reports drawn up by the General Veterinary Inspectorate (RRW-6) in 2016–2019. During this period, nearly 900 million hens, 206 million turkeys, 122 million ducks, 63 million geese, and over 5.7 billion slaughter chickens were slaughtered under veterinary supervision. Symptoms or lesions were found in almost 2.6 million hens (0.29%), 1.8 million turkeys (0.86%), 792 thousand ducks (0.65%), 185 thousand geese (0.29%) and over 27.3 million chickens (0.48%). The main causes of confiscation were emaciation (0.14%), incomplete loss of blood (0.06%), and septicaemia and pyaemia (0.07%). Quality deviations in the form of emaciation or incomplete loss of blood of slaughtered animals indicate shortcomings during rearing or transport of animals for slaughter. Therefore, there may be legitimate concerns about the appropriate level of animal welfare. The size of overall losses in poultry is determined by the disqualification of chickens, due to slaughter size in comparison with other species. The confiscation of such a large number of chickens deserves greater attention to determine the causes involved.
