    A predictive model for poultry inspection was developed using systems research, achieving high accuracy in predicting flock condemnation. This model aids inspectors by providing data-driven decision-making information at processing plants.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Medicine
    • Agricultural Science
    • Systems Engineering

    Background:

    • Poultry inspection at processing plants faces challenges in accurately predicting flock health and condemnation rates.
    • Existing methods may not fully capture the complex dynamics influencing poultry health from hatching to processing.
    • Developing a predictive model can enhance inspection efficiency and reduce economic losses due to disease-related condemnations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and validate a predictive model for poultry inspection at processing plants.
    • To examine poultry population health dynamics from hatching to processing using a systems research design.
    • To create decision-making tools for inspectors based on flock health data.

    Main Methods:

    • A systems research design was employed, stratifying farms into good, average, and poor producers.

  • Epidemiologic causal diagrams identified variables influencing poultry condemnation across hatchery, broiler, and processing subsystems.
  • Stepwise multiple regression and discriminant analysis were used to develop predictive and classification models.
  • Main Results:

    • A predictor model achieved a high multiple correlation coefficient (R) of 0.91 and coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.82.
    • A discriminant analysis model for classifying flocks into high or low condemnation groups demonstrated correct classification probabilities ranging from 0.88 to 1.0.
    • The developed models were computerized using Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code (BASIC) for practical application.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed computerized models provide accurate, data-driven decision-making information for poultry inspectors.
    • These models can systematically evaluate alternatives for scaled-down inspection or other interventions.
    • The research successfully established a predictive tool to improve poultry inspection processes and potentially reduce condemnations.
