Abstract :
Much energy is consumed annually in various industries. Including poultry industry is energy industries. The study to determine the energy efficiency of the inputs used in poultry and poultry was Alborz Province. Twenty units to carry out this study. The questionnaire was completed with the participation of farmers were analyzed by DEA-Solver Software. After gathering data, results showed that only four farms were efficient. Six farms with automatic feeding system, not the traditional feeding systems and five poultry farms equipped with semi-automatic feeding systems are also equipped. Energy than units that are equipped with an automatic feeding system with 0.57 is greater than the other units. In a way that traditional feeding systems equipped with semi-automatic energy ratio with a ratio of 0.52 and 0.42 in the next energy as well. All subjects had a surplus of manpower. Thirteen units of study have an energy surplus electricity input. Except in the case of fuel energy efficient units, all units have fuel inefficient energy surplus And to possess you must cut their fuel consumption. In the case of the four units of energy inefficient equipment depreciation, which should restrictits surplus energy. Notable in this regard is that any three of the four units hopeless in this part of the system are semi-automatic feeders and drinkers. In the case of chicken feed as well as all inefficient units and must face the problem of excess consumption measures such as automatic change in the size or production halls resolve this issue
