In the last few decades, production of poultry meat has been transformed into the most intensive, almost industrial production. This resulted in short periods of fattening, five to six production cycles during the year and quick turnover of capital. Unfortunately, intensive production of chicken meat led to deterioration of carcass and meat quality (tasteless meat, high content of fat) while on the other side, consumers demands became very high. They want healthy meat from free range chickens, without any residues of drugs, pesticides, herbicides, hormones and other growth stimulators. This paper is a review of different possibilities for raising meat type chickens in extensive systems together with their main technological characteristics.
