In Ep. 89, Dr. Stewart-Brown describes how Perdue maintains and tracks its commitments to transparent, progressive and tactical animal husbandry practices in poultry and pork. He’ll also outline the latest findings from Perdue’s 7th Annual Animal Care Summit and spotlight progress in animal care practices on the live side as reported in the company’s 2022 Commitments to Animal Care Report. Stewart-Brown, a 24-year veteran at Perdue, also will offer perspectives at the plant level, including the use of controlled-atmosphere stunning and at the farm, where data collection on monitoring what exactly chickens are doing during the day is an expanding effort using RFID technology and more frequent weighing of birds.
