• Global poultry production: current state and future outlook and challenges (2017, background): “However, van Horne and Achterbosch (2008) have shown that costs of production in laying hens are 30% and 40% in the US and Brazil respectively compared to the Netherlands, partly because of the absence of legislation on housing requirements and beak trimmings.”
• The prevention and control of feather pecking: application to commercial systems (2013, background): “…of the EU permit beak trimming before 10 days of age (FAWC, 2007), but organic certification bodies prohibit the use of routine beak trimming, and a number of member states are currently considering whether the practice of beak-trimming should be banned completely (Van Horne and Achterbosch, 2008).”
