Abstract

Broiler farms are the main supplier of national meat needs in Indonesia. Production of broilers in Indonesia continues to increase every year as a consequence of the Indonesian population increase. The main issue in animal production is environmental pollution including in broiler production. This study aimed to identify the source of air pollution related to broiler farms and how to overcome air pollution from broiler farms. The result of the study showed that there were several primary air pollutions from broiler farms, i.e., the pollution from emissions of ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, greenhouse gasses, odor, and dust. Generally, air pollution from the broiler farm resulted mainly from broiler manure. It has been concluded that manure management is the main way in the reduction of air pollution from broiler farms. Management of feeding is the other way to reduce air pollution from broiler farms, it is because the air pollution from broiler manure resulted from excess nutrients from feed which released through manure. Applicating feed additives and waste additive is the other way which recommendation to reduce air pollution from broiler farms, besides other kinds of approaches.
