Summary. In the poultry industry there is no a precise method of economic evaluation of veterinary activities. The basis for the development of the methodological guidelines for calculating the cost-effectiveness of the prevention of stress in chicken from parent flock of meat direction were regulations of the existing law documents in the veterinary medicine, agriculture and accounting, as well as researches, carried out by the scientific school headed by professor I.N. Nikitin in different years. We propose the unified method of calculation adapted for poultry with the interpretation of formulas, taking into account such factors as veterinary costs and the economical effect of activities. Veterinary costs are the combination of the costs associated with anti-stress therapy: the cost of funds in the amount spent in view of recycled residues, and labor costs. The economic result is an indicator, maximally defining the economic effect, and it depends not only from the safety of hens, but also on their egg productivity, the number of incubated eggs, fertilized eggs, hatchability, or young birds. By using antistress medicaments these indicators are qualitatively improved depending on the degree of the exerted therapeutic effect. More objective results of the economic evaluation are achieved by taking into account the productivity of the birds for the whole cycle of its economic use, even in the absence of an immediate economic effect. Selecting a stress relieving drug for use in poultry keeping it should be guided not to its value, but on the degree of influence on the productivity parameters. Using of the developed method will not only reliably estimate the cost-effectiveness of the practical application of anti-stress medicaments, but also to make a preliminary assessment of the treatment in the calculation of the required population.
