The Impact of Climate Characteristics on the Disease infection in Kfri District

Abstract

This study explains the relationship and effect of climatic breed characteristics on the infection of poultry (broiler chickens) with diseases in Kafri district  The main question of the research is whether the climate types in Kafri district have an impact and role in the infection of broiler diseases according to the seasons?To answer this question and reach a correct conclusion, the study relies on the use of infection data and recording cases for three years (2022-2024), and climate data for Kafri district (2013-2024). With the use of geographical methods of praise and quantitative analysis and programs (GIS10.5) (SPSS13). The study concluded that climate species have different degrees of influence on poultry diseases, with viral diseases being the most common From the transitional seasons, due to the constant sudden changes in the weather that cause them stress, weaken their immune system and make them susceptible to viral diseases. Statistical evaluation showed that temperature (mean temperature deviation) has the greatest impact on the appearance of viral diseases, reaching (88%). Coccidia is most common in winter due to high humidity and suitable temperature for this disease. Statistical evaluation showed that relative humidity is more effective than other species There is a grade on inflammatory bowel disease and reaches (99%).Bacterial diseases such as respiratory diseases have the highest incidence in both spring and autumn, because these two seasons are generally warmer than both winter and summer The air is changing rapidly, in addition to the temperature difference between day and night, which falls above and below the required temperature. Statistical evaluation showed that gender characteristics of temperature (temperature difference between day and night) is primarily responsible for the incidence of this disease compared to other genders, so that the rate The effectiveness reaches (90%).
