Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to examine egg features from various types of farming systems such as mechanized farm, semimechanized and non-mechanized farm. To examine the quality of eggs from different categories of farms, eggs were gathered from different regions of India and compared based on external and internal features. The egg weight was considerably (P<0.01)
higher in semi-mechanized farms, according to the findings. Similarly, the semi-mechanized farm had a higher shape index than the non-mechanized farm. Egg shell thickness was found to be 0.390.00 mm on average, with no differences amongst the different production systems. The average shell weight was reported to be 6.66±0.02 g. The overall mean for albumen weight was 33.98±0.09g, and the albumen index was 3.3±0.00, both of which were statistically significant (P<0.01) for each farm. Mechanized farms had the greatest albumen weight (34.04±0.19g), followed by semi-mechanized (33.75±0.19g) and non-mechanized (33.04±0.19g) poultry farms. As a result, automated farm (mechanized farm) eggs were found to be of higher overall quality.
