The main factors affecting egg production in poultry farms include adequate light (14-16 hours a day), balanced and proper nutrition (especially protein, energy, and calcium), healthy environment (where stress is low), proper genetic selection, and age and health status. If these factors are properly controlled, it is possible to increase egg production.
