CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Due to increased scrutiny from government regulators and the public on air emissions from poultry production facilities, there is a growing incentive for producers to take cost-effective steps to enhance the emission profiles of their operations.

Researchers from Michigan State University, University of Maryland, and Purdue University detailed their findings in a recent issue of Poultry. . .
