The poultry sector plays a crucial role in global food production by meeting the growing demand for affordable, nutritious protein sources. However, it faces significant challenges in providing sustainable and cost-effective nutritional solutions that improve poultry health, performance, and product quality.

Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have the potential to enhance poultry nutrition through the development of precise feeding strategies. AI helps monitor and optimize nutrient intake, thereby boosting feed efficiency, reducing waste, and lowering costs.

A review by Ahmed A A Abdel-Wareth from the Poultry Center, College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources, Prairie View A&M University, the US and his colleague, examined how AI-driven innovations may advance the management of poultry feed ingredients, nutrient monitoring, and dietary formulations.

They conclude that:

The integration of AI into poultry nutrition may advance the poultry farming industry by enabling precise, adaptive feeding strategies that optimize nutrient intake, improve bird health, reduce feed costs, and enhance the quality of poultry products.
AI-driven technologies, including machine learning, data analytics, and sensor-based monitoring, offer unprecedented opportunities for farmers to make informed, data-driven decisions tailored to the specific needs of poultry at each stage of their lifecycle.
These technologies are not only improving the overall productivity and efficiency of poultry operations but also reducing waste, promoting sustainability, and improving animal welfare.
As AI continues to evolve, it is becoming an indispensable tool for addressing some of the most pressing challenges in poultry farming, including rising feed ingredient costs, environmental sustainability, and long-term poultry health.
By leveraging AI for precision feeding, optimizing feed formulations, and monitoring health indicators, the poultry industry is poised to meet the growing global demand for high-quality, nutritious poultry products while minimizing environmental impacts.
