Elizabeth Doughman reports:
The Chicken Ecology and Ecosystem Services, or ChickEES, study, will examine the influence pastured and free-range chickens have on the ecosystem of integrated crop-livestock farms. The goal of the project is three-fold. First, to quantify the impact of free-range and pastured chickens on pest control. Second, to assess the food safety risks of outdoor poultry production. Finally, measure soil properties and microbial communities to assess the effects of chicken activity on soil.
