Case study: analyse a failed flock from start to finish and write the correction plan
An owner from the Abengourou area calls in April: "I lost money on my March flock, the feed was bad, I am changing supplier." He has the record book, the delivery notes and the weighing tickets: everything needed to do better than guess. This lesson takes that flock from the first to the last day, with its real technical figures, applies the methods of the level one by one, names the causes in order of weight, and writes the correction plan the technician hands to the owner. It is the typical exercise of the Technician Certificate exam.

- ✓Date the slip with the gap method and read the record book’s signals (weight, mortality, water/feed, uniformity)
- ✓Rank the causes by weight, relying on the mechanism of each signal
- ✓Write a quantified, realistic correction plan, and say what should have been done before
