The demand for poultry products is on an increase hence creating need for more farmers to invest in the sector.
Before venturing into poultry farming, there are basics that farmers need to know in order to be successful in the business. Have a perfect idea of the cost needed to start and run the project. This is important because you dont need to start something that you wont finish. The money you need will be used to buy the feeds, medications and vaccines and the average needed is between 3 to 4 dollars per bird.
Factors considered
Location of the farm is important. Locate the farm where there is constant supply of clean water and where there is security. Let the place be accessible and where the birds wont be a nuisance to the environment and vice versa.
Good source of input is as important as the project itself. Ensure that you have a good source of quality day old chicks, medications and the vaccines.
