Poultry CRC

Poultry CRC is a science topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Poultry CRC rather than just read about it. In short: The Poultry Co-operative Research Center, or Poultry CRC, is a joint venture established and supported under the Australian Government's Cooperative Research Centre Programme. The Poultry CRC's major challenge was to help Australia achieve sustainable, ethical poultry production in the face of population growth and climate change.

Key takeaways

Poultry CRC belongs to science; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Poultry CRC to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Poultry CRC from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

The Poultry Co-operative Research Center, or Poultry CRC, is a joint venture established and supported under the Australian Government's Cooperative Research Centre Programme. The Poultry CRC's major challenge was to help Australia achieve sustainable, ethical poultry production in the face of population growth and climate change. In July 2008, the Poultry CRC won the World's Poultry Science Association (WPSA) Industry/Organization Award at the World's Poultry Congress in Brisbane in recognition of an outstanding contribution to the development of the poultry industry. In August 2012, the Poultry CRC was awarded the WPSA's Education Award at the World's Poultry Congress in Brazil for their exceptional contribution to poultry education. In addition, the Poultry CRC received an Australian Collaborative Innovation Award in May 2012.

Structure of the CRC Poultry CRC was an unincorporated joint venture among seven essential participants and was governed by a skills-based board. It manages its research and development programme through a public company, Poultry CRC Ltd. Poultry CRC is headquartered at the University of New England in Armidale, New South Wales, and has an extensive collaborative network comprising researchers, educators, and support staff from its participating organizations. The original Poultry CRC was established on 1 July 2003, with the subsequent CRC being extended to 2017.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Poultry CRC

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Poultry CRC claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Poultry CRC before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Poultry CRC ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Poultry CRC

In research: Poultry CRC appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Poultry CRC in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Poultry CRC is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 2003 establishments, Agricultural organisations based in Australia, Food technology organizations, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Poultry CRC outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.

Frequently asked questions

What is Poultry CRC in simple terms?

Why does Poultry CRC matter?

Because it connects several science ideas at once: it gives you a definition you can apply, a quantity you can calculate, and a way to check whether a result is plausible.

How should I study Poultry CRC?
