Sažetak
Poultry production in Croatia during 2003 and 2004 remained at the same level as in previous years despite the economical difficulties. However, restructuring of the industry to larger poultry producing companies was noted. Many new poultry farms with modern equipment have been built, and many old farms have been renewed and equipped with new systems. Some of the poultry producers are not up to date with management and husbandry, and these are primarily small producers who will probably disappear due to market competition. Analysed feed for poultry are generally at a satisfactory level regarding chemical composition and hygienic standards. Some broiler feed samples had a lower quantity of protein and energy, therefore genetic potential of the modern broiler hybrids is not fully exploited and profit is lost. Poultry health during the last two years can be generally estimated as satisfactory. Infectious bursal disease (Gumboro disease), which caused significant economic losses in the recent years, has decreased, but incidence of infectious stunting syndrome significantly increases. Infectious stunting syndrome is controlled primarily by basic management principles, so we assume that this disease should not be a problem in our poultry industry. Bacteria from Salmonella genus were isolated in 2004 in a greater number compared to two previous years, but most of the isolates belonged to “C1” group. S. Enteritidis, which was the predominant serovar during the last decade, slightly decreased, whereas S. Typhimurium serovar is increasing. Frequent isolation of “C1” group salmonellas implicates their presence in feed, and particular attention should be paid to this problem.
