A Poultry Technician oversees the management and control of a complex poultry farming site or operational agriculture (hatchery) unit. This includes responsibility for the performance and results of their site, covering the welfare of animals throughout their life and compliance at all times with hygiene, safety, and bird welfare legislation.
