This book contains a selected cross section of papers from the 2014 UK Poultry Science Symposium (31st Poultry Science Symposium, held in Queen Hotel, Chester, UK, last 8-10 September 2014). It reviews essential topics such as resources and supply chains, the global poultry market, risk management, zoonoses and green issues. Providing a compilation of the most current research in the poultry science and production industry, this book is an important resource for both researchers and professionals.

Part IV contains chapters 6 and 7, which feedstuffs will be used in the future? and limiting factors for nutritional efficiency respectively. Part V inlcudes: food safety : prevention is better than crisis management (chapter 8); endemic disease - the challenge to reduce antibiotic use (chapter 9); and human nutrition and health - making products more desirable to consumers (chapter 10). Part VI includes: breeding for sustainability: maintaining and enhancing multi-trait genetic improvement (chapter 11); and increased sustainability in poultry production: new tools and resources for genetic management (chpater 12) The seventh part discussed the topic on reducing the environmental impact of poultry production (chapter 13) and finally Part VIII discussed horizons and prospects - a role for WPSA? (chapter 14).
