Coccidiosis in poultry: Disease mechanisms, control strategies, and future directions
According to a 2023 survey by the American Veterinarians in Broiler Production, Coccidiosis is the number one disease in the broiler poultry industry. Coccidiosis results in the reduction of growth rate, decrease in feed efficiency, and poor body weight uniformity. The more we understand this diseas...

| description | According to a 2023 survey by the American Veterinarians in Broiler Production, Coccidiosis is the number one disease in the broiler poultry industry. Coccidiosis results in the reduction of growth rate, decrease in feed efficiency, and poor body weight uniformity. The more we understand this disease the more we can move forward towards control. The purpose of this symposium was to increase our understanding of coccidiosis. The topics discussed were the diagnosis, immune response, control/prevention, medications (natural and chemical), and interactions with other diseases. The Coccidiosis Symposium provided up to date information from both research and field experiences. This information will be useful for production managers, nutritionists, and veterinarians, as well as providing opportunities for future research. |
