This study investigated the characteristics of Korean Native Fowl (KW) to standarize the feeding regime and compared with those of broiler. The characteristics of KNF studied were meat productivities and carcass traits. The data were collected for 14 weeks from March to June, 1992, by recording from 200 birds(50 birds per each sex and 2 breed) were as follows ： 1. Average body weight at 14 weeks of age of Korean Native Fowl(KW) and broiler were 868.7g and 3,526.6g, respectively and were 26.6 times and 72.9 times of day old chicks weight averages, respectively. 2. The carcass yields during 9∼14 wks were 74.1∼78.5％ for KNF male, 73.g∼77.5％ for KW female, 72.2∼76.9％ for broiler male and 71.7∼76.4％ for female. It was shown that carcass yields of KNF was 2％ higher than that of broiler. 3. In edible portion, the yields of wings weight to carcass weight were 11.5∼12.4％ for KNF male, 11.5∼13.1％ for KNF female, 10.7∼11.9％ for broiler male and 10.7∼12.2％ for broiler female, it was shown that wings weight of KW was higher than that of broiler and wings weight of KNF during 9∼14 wks. 4. The portions of back and breast weight were higher than those of KNF during 9∼14 wks. The back portions in carcass weight were 15.4∼17.0％ for KW male 15.4∼16.8％ for KNF female, 17.2∼19.0％ for broiler male, and 17.2∼19.0％ for broiler female. The breast portions in carcass weight were 19.6∼22.0％ for KNF male, 20.2∼22.7％ for KNF female 23.S∼24.5％ for broiler male, and 25.1∼27.7％ for broiler female. 5. The portion of thigh and drumsticks weight in carcass weight of KNF was similar to that of broiler. They were 26.8∼28.0％ for KNF male, 25.5∼27.1％ for KNF female, 27.7％ for broiler male, and 26.9％ for broiler female, respectively. 6. For the weight of inedible portion during 9∼14 wks, feather weight of KNF was 5.3∼6.8％ of live weight and 3.8 ∼4.4％ in those of broiler. This result indicated that KNF has more rooms for improvement than broiler. 7. Abdominal fat weight was 2.42∼3.88g for KNF male and 1.84∼3.08g for KNF female, which was 0.5％ of carcass weight. But broiler has more abdominal fat than KNF as 39.4∼56.3 g for male, 33.3∼67.8 g for female which was 2.5 ∼3.0％ of carcass weight.

Broilers were raised as the same environmental conditions with Korean native chickens (KNC) and slaughtered at the same age (13 week) to observe the physiochemical differences in breast and leg meat. The crude fat content of broilers was significantly higher than that of KNC in both breast and leg meat. pH of both breast and leg meat of broiler was lower than that of KNC. Redness of breast meat surface was higher in broiler than KNC. Except for the chewiness of raw leg meat, which was higher in KNC than broiler, the results of texture showed no difference between broilers and KNC. However, the collagen content of leg meat of KNC (6.78 mg/g) was significantly higher than that of broilers (3.12 mg/g). Results showed that broilers reared and slaughtered as the same conditions with KNC had significantly higher fat content while lower collagen content. Therefore, these physicochemical differences clearly indicate that the meat characteristics of broilers cannot be similar to KNC even if the environmental conditions and slaughter age are identical.

사육단계에 HACCP 인증이 실시된 이후, 용인시 농업기술센터의 주도로 용인에 소재한 육계농장들은 HACCP 인증을 받기 위해 발 빠른 행보를 보였다. 그 결과 육계농가 중 첫 번째로 인증을 받은 농장도 용인이고, 인증 받은 농장이 가장 많은 곳도 마찬가지로 용인이다. 이렇게 HACCP 인증 교육을 위해 모인 농가들은 정보공유와 친목도모를 위해 '용인시육계 HACCP 동호회'를 만들었다. 이번 달에는 이 모임을 이끌고 있는 김진선 회장이 운영하는 선진농장을 찾아가 보았다.

우리나라는 사계절이 뚜렷해 육계를 사육하는데 어려움이 많다. 여름철의 더위와 겨울철의 추위로 기자재의 도움 없이는 육계를 사육할 수 없다. 여름철이나 겨울철 환기나 급수, 급이 등에 필요한 기자재에 고장이 발생하면 많은 닭들이 폐사해 농가는 큰 피해를 입는다. 그렇기 때문에 특히 육계농가들에게 기자재의 역할은 닭들의 생명과 같은 것이다. 현재 우리나라의 기자재 산업은 미국이나 유럽의 양계선진국에 뒤지지 않을 만큼 발전해 있다. 이러한 발전은 유럽, 미국 등의 양계 선진국들의 기자재와 자동화 시스템을 도입해 우리나라 실정에 맞게 발전시켜온 결과이다.

우리나라의 기후는 분명 변하고 있다. 이미 6월초 부터 실제적으로 혹서기를 맞이한 현재, 우리가 살고있는 이 땅에 봄과 가을은 점점 그 기간이 짧아지고 있다. 불과 몇 년전만 해도 육계 사육에 있어서 가장 혹독한 기간($2\~5$월)을 보내고 나서 적어도 한 파스는 더위 스트레스에 시달리지 않고 사육하여 출하 할 수 있었다. 혹서기에 내 육계농장이 위치한 지역의 온도와 습도, 바람의 방향 등 환경요인을 이해하고 이에 적극적으로 대처해야만 우수한 육계 사육 성적을 확보할 수 있는 바, 본고에서는 우리 육계 사양가들께서 열정과 관심을 갖고 있다면 극복할 수 있는 고온 스트레스 예방 대책에 초점을 맞추고자 한다.
