As a subject matter expert in agricultural statistics, I can provide an estimate based on available data and industry trends. The number of chickens killed daily worldwide is a complex figure to pin down precisely due to the vast and diverse poultry industry. However, we can make an educated guess using global meat production statistics.

According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, in 2019, global poultry meat production was approximately 140 million metric tons. Since the average chicken yields about 2.2 pounds (0.99 kg) of meat, we can estimate the number of chickens processed annually.

First, let's convert the production figure to kilograms:
140 million metric tons = 140,000,000,000 kg

Next, we'll estimate the number of chickens:
140,000,000,000 kg / 0.99 kg/chicken ≈ 141,414,141,414 chickens

Now, to find the daily figure, we divide by the number of days in a year:
141,414,141,414 chickens / 365 days ≈ 387,000,000 chickens per day

Keep in mind that this is a rough estimate and the actual number can vary due to factors such as changes in consumption patterns, production efficiency, and seasonal fluctuations.
