Frequently asked questions

What is a good FCR for broilers?

Commercial broilers at 42 days typically target 1.55–1.70. Top-10% operations achieve 1.35–1.45 through nutrition, water and environmental control.

How is FCR calculated?

FCR = Total feed consumed (kg) ÷ Total live weight gain (kg). Lower is better.

Does FCR include mortality weight?

Best practice is to include mortality live weight in the denominator so FCR reflects true flock efficiency.
