Factors in PoultryLand.Water.Inputs ( grains)Energy.Environment.Consumer preferences.

LandGenerally on non arable water deficit lands.Huge area is required for mass production under present system.Dwindling land holdings and labour demands automation & consolidation.Selection of land elevated; barrier free for air movement.Public suited.

WaterPoultry need good soft water.Huge requirement in large farms( 2ml for 1gm feed).Contamination of ground water by litter if not managed.Measures proposed for sustainability : rain water harvesting, use of nipple drinkers,etc

Grains:Grains( Maize & soya) converted into valuable protein: egg, Meat.Debate; Grain v/s animal protein ( Hunger for food).Problem of grain sector: Monsoon, poor productivity, quality seed, No exclusive production.Sustainability: Backward integration, modern agri practices, .

Energy.Use of energy in poultry: water sourcing.Feeding. Hatchery. lighting, Brooding, Automation. etc

Environment of poultry productionThree issues: Smell; Dead bird disposal; Fly menace.Sustainable poultry production should address these on priority.Litter management is key; Dead bird disposal to be made mandatory by banks for financing .

Consumer preference.Poultry no more remains as commodityConsumer wants features food safety & qualityFood safety act ( www.foodsafetyindia.nic.in ) stringent norms in future.Debates are on by importing countries to make mandatory labeling methods of production or else face lower welfare taxSolution : gear up at the earliest

Green Poultry farms?????

Hope Encourage automation.Incentivize farmers for solar, power generation, waste management.Recommend rain water harvesting.Poultry companies to have exclusive agri division for grain inputs for poultry with modern practices.India : great potential for free range or organic farming.
