INDUSTRY STANDARDS

Unlocking Content Area Vocabulary

 Products- These are goods and services produced in poultry and livestock production. This includes
traction, milk, eggs, fibers, wool, leather, feathers, and pharmaceuticals.
 Animal by-products (ABPs)- These are the materials derived from animal which are not beneficial
for human consumption.
 Waste Management Systems- It is a system or process of managing waste generated in poultry
and livestock production. It involves generation, collection, transfer, storage, treatment, and
utilization.

Products of Poultry and Livestock Production


Livestock raising provides a wide array of benefits. While it is true that is provides a source of employment of
the community members, it also provides a wide array of goods and services. These goods and services are
intended for human consumption. This includes traction, milk, eggs, fibers, wool, leather, feathers,
pharmaceuticals.

Traction- Farm animals such as cattle can serve as draft animals to draw farm implements, agricultural
supplies, and products.

Dairy products are derived from livestock that produces milk such as cattle and goat. It can be processed
to produce cheese, ice cream, butter, yogurt, etc.

Eggs and meat are excellent sources of protein and other nutrients.

Clothing can be made from animal skin and feather. Cattle skin can be made into leather; goat fur can turn
into wool; chicken feather serves as clothing accessories.

Pharmaceutical products are derived from skin, bones, horn, hooves of slaughtered livestock.

Byproducts of Poultry and Livestock Production - Animal by-products (ABPs) are materials derived from
animals which are not intended for human consumption. This includes:

a. Slaughterhouse waste are byproducts derived when livestock are butchered in the slaughterhouse.
Slaughtering leaves skin, bones, horn, hooves, blood, fat and offal (internal organs).
b. Catering waste are materials used in the entire livestock production. It includes food waste, plastics
and packaging of the feeds, glass bottles of medicines, boxes and cardboards.
c. Fallen stock are farm animals died due to natural causes, diseases or killed prior to harvest.
d. Materials produced by animals such as manure, eggshells, feathers, wool, and fiber.
e. Former foodstuff of animal origin are products that are no longer suitable for human consumption
such as milk, eggs, and meat.

Waste Management Systems - There are six basic functions consisting of the Waste Management
Systems: production/generation, collection, transfer, storage, treatment, and utilization.

1. Production. This refers to the amount and nature of agricultural


waste generated. Management of waste considers the quantity of
waste generated as it becomes a major concern in dealing with it.
2. Collection. It is referred to as the initial capture and gathering of
waste from its source or deposition to a collection point. It should
consider the method of collection, location, scheduling, labor
requirement, needed equipment and facilities, management, and
impact.
3. Transfer. This refers to the transfer and transportation of waste
throughout the system. This considers the transport of waste from
collection point to the storage facility, treatment facility, and
utilization facility.
4. Storage. This refers to the temporary containment of the waste before transfer. Thus, a temporary
storage facility is needed before it is being scheduled for pick- up.
5. Treatment. This process involves the reduction of impact the waste can bring such as pollution and
modification of the physical characteristics of the waste. Pre-treatment is an effective method to
facilitate more efficient and effective handling of waste.
6. Utilization. This process involves reusing or recycling of waste products such as source of energy,
and source of organic matter through
composting.
