One of the most fast-developing branches of animal husbandry is poultry farming. It is the most science-intensive and dynamic sector of the agro-industrial complex. Agricultural poultry is characterized by rapid reproduction, intensive growth, high productivity, and vitality. The rearing and maintenance of poultry require less manual labor and material costs per unit of production compared to other branches of animal husbandry.
The domestic market demand for poultry meat is about 450–500 thousand tons. Self-sufficiency in poultry meat currently stands at around 50%, although chicken production ranks second after beef production in the country.
In modern poultry farming, along with positive trends, there remain many problems requiring comprehensive solutions. Among them is the spread of parasitic diseases in chickens, which occur in poultry farms of various ownership forms. Research by domestic and foreign scientists has proven that any poultry enterprise practicing floor housing of birds is disadvantaged by parasitic diseases, especially by eimeriosis. Practice shows that eimeriosis is a significant problem in poultry farming, as there is practically no industrial poultry farm free from this invasion. Moreover, when veterinary and sanitary regulations in poultry houses are violated, Eimeria can accumulate in large quantities within a short period.
Therefore, at present, the main urgent problem in poultry farming is chicken eimeriosis. This is primarily due to the active development of industrial poultry farming in the Republic of Kazakhstan. Chicken eimeriosis is widespread. Due to the high susceptibility of young birds, eimeriosis causes enormous economic losses to the poultry industry, consisting not only of decreased productivity but also of high mortality, culling, and additional costs for feed and medication.
Due to insufficiently organized work on the treatment and prevention of chicken eimeriosis at this poultry farm, we had the opportunity to study this problem.
