The lowest infection rate recorded was 11.8% in the intensive management system, while the highest was 40.0% in the extensive system, demonstrating clear risk differences.
This study conducted a cross-sectional analysis comparing infection rates among poultry farms with different management practices across Ogun State.
Improving sanitation and management practices is critical, as younger birds in poorly managed systems showed increased susceptibility to coccidial infections.
