Integrate poultry with trees and crops, which can increase biodiversity and reduce feed costs as birds forage, but complicate management and harvest.

Provides a fully enclosed environment with controlled temperature, humidity, and lighting, which can maximize productivity but require significant energy and may raise welfare concerns.

Birds are raised on floor systems with bedding materials such as wood shavings, allowing natural behaviors but requiring regular litter management to prevent disease.

Multi-level systems allowing birds to move vertically and horizontally, promoting natural behaviors and social structures but can make management and egg collection more complex.

Combines different production stages under a single company's control, improving efficiency and biosecurity, but may lead to less competition in the industry.

Also known as enriched or colony cages, these provide more space than conventional battery cages and include enrichments like perches and nest boxes, aiming to improve welfare without fully removing confinement.

Employ organic feed and avoid synthetic chemicals. They also adhere to free-range principles, but with stricter regulations regarding feed and medication.

Chickens are kept in a larger confined area often with vegetation, providing more space than conventional systems but still limiting full range of natural behaviors.

Designed to mimic natural light patterns, potentially improving welfare and productivity by aligning with the chickens' circadian rhythms, differing from 24/7 brightly lit environments.

Allow birds more space and access to the outdoors, providing more natural behavior patterns but can increase exposure to predators and diseases.

Poultry are raised on grassland, moved regularly to fresh pasture, ensuring a diet supplemented by foraging, which may enhance flavor and nutrition of products.
