Applied Poultry Research Laboratory
Faculty Supervisor: Dr. Roselina Angel
The APRL is part of the Upper Marlboro Research Facility, a 202 acre
unit located in Prince George's County, approximately 20 miles (30 minutes)
from the College Park campus. The facility was constructed in 1996 to
replace the former campus poultry farm. At present there are two broiler
grow-out houses that can be adapted to handle a variety of research activities
ranging from nutrition to physiology to animal behavior, a combination
feed handling/shop/storage/office building, and a machinery shed. The
APRL is used by the Department of Animal and Avian Sciences faculty and
their graduate students.
