POULTRY FARMING

The production of poultry in the United States and generally throughout  the  world is carried out by  a  highly  specialized, efficient  poultry industry that has been a leader in  trends  of scale  and  industrialization that have taken place  in  American agriculture  over  the past half century.  The  total  number  of chicken  produced in the United State annually amounts  to  more than  3.6 billion.  These are kept for two separate  purpose  the production  of table eggs.  The organization and methods used  by the  two  aspects  of the poultry  industry  are  different,  and generally commercial table egg production and broiler  production
are carried out by separate enterprises.

Availability  of  feeds and  their  ingredients  contributed significantly  to  increased Poultry production  is  our  country during the two decades.

Feed  represents  about  75%  of  the  total  cost  of   egg production  and  per  cent of the  cost  of  broiler  production.  Therefore,  efficiency in feeding is are of the key  factors  for successful  poultry  production.  But very  few  poultry  formers demote  a  comparable  preparation of their  managerial  time  to ensure  that the feed supplies and food in take by the birds  are satisfactory.

The  broiler  industry is a highly  integrated  industry  in which most of the steps in the production process are  controlled by  a  single  firm.  A  hatchery,  breeder  flocks,  feed  milk, processing  plant,  and a number of contract  growers  served  by technical  service  staff make up a  typical  integrated  broiler company.  More than 90% of the commercial broilers are raised  by grovers under contact to a broiler firm.
