Description: An experiment was conducted with male heavy turkeys to study the effects of the application ofcanola oil to litter and ventilation rate, on health status and growth performance at 16 weeks of age. Litter oiling and increased ventilation rate significantly reduced the con centration of aerosol dust particles and the incidence of lung lesions. Overall, birds that developed lung lesions were those which had a fast rate of growth initially (8 to 12 weeks of age). Such birds later exhibited a relatively slow rate of growth (12 to 16 weeks of age). There would appear to be a negative relationship between the devel opment of lung lesions and subsequent growth rate. Litter oiling offers a practical means of reducing dust in poultry housing.
