Abstract

Chicken production plays a vital role in global food systems, providing essential protein to billions of people, particularly in developing nations. However, climate change poses significant challenges to the poultry industry, including temperature stress, water scarcity, feed supply disruptions, disease prevalence, and economic impacts. This review examines the intricate effects of climate change on chicken production, highlighting primary challenges and exploring potential solutions. Proactive measures such as improved housing, water management, feed innovation, disease control, and genetic selection are crucial for enhancing the resilience of poultry farming systems. Collaborative efforts among industry stakeholders, researchers, and policymakers are essential to effectively implement these strategies and safeguard food security, economic stability, and environmental sustainability. By prioritizing adaptation and mitigation efforts, stakeholders can mitigate the adverse effects of climate change on chicken production, ensuring continued productivity and profitability in a changing climate. It is imperative that decisive action is taken to address these challenges, fostering innovation, sustainability, and resilience in chicken production systems worldwide.
