Detailed Broiler Farm Project Report for 10,000 Birds (With PDF)

Last updated on May 14, 2021 by Temi Cole Leave a Comment

• Introduction to 10,000 Broiler Farm Project Report

My name is Temi Cole , the author of The Big Book Project.

Whilst there are many broiler farm project reports published online,

I decided to publish this one to give you 3 unique benefits (brand new – just for you):

• …all other broiler project reports seen online used All-In-All-Out rearing.
• Guide notes to help you understand the workings of any poultry project report
• Give you a PDF to print off and study later (click the big orange button above).

So if you are looking for a detailed sample broiler farm project report AND analysis,

(Using a multi-flock, high cash flow rearing model)

This is it!

A little hint…

In case the thought crosses your mind, this report was produced using Poultry Project Reporter software .

It’s a custom-built, web-based automatic poultry project report writer.

I exclusively built and use this software to write all my consultancy project reports.

To save me time (and money) …PLUS, to produce the most detailed reports anywhere.

And it does just that.

Write Your Poultry Business Plan - in Just 90 Mins!

It’s:

Because of it, I am now able to produce the most detailed poultry project reports that I have seen anywhere online…

…literally taking minutes to calculate complex proposals that otherwise would take weeks to write.

(I wouldn’t dream of doing it any other way now. And yes, I recommend it .)

How I Put This Report Together

Things to keep in mind when reading this broiler farm project report, assumptions, indian government subsidies for poultry farming projects, a quick note on broiler housing, economics of broiler farming to with a production capacity of 10,000 birds (using 4+1 rearing model), but why a negative net present value that isn’t good, is it, now, over to you….

I worked out this broiler farming project report using these methods and conditions:

• It’s based in India. (So all prices are quoted in Indian Rupees.)
• Odishavet.com (Dr. Ashesa Kuamar Kar – a veterinary officer with the Government of Odisha, in Subarnapur district)
• Dr. Vishnu Vardhan Reddy Pulimi – Animal Nutritionist, Dairy Consultant and Veterinary Assistant Surgeon (VAS) at Government of Andhra Pradesh
• Krishi Vigyan Kendra (Kendrapara, Odisha) Agricultural Extension
• Tamil Nadu Agricultural University
• Vikaspedia.in – part of the national level initiative – India Development Gateway (InDG)
• …this was because they are credible sources of Indian based poultry project research. (No point in reinventing the wheel. These are currently the gold standard online.)

I must remind you that these conditions should be kept constant when interpreting:

• Commercial strain broiler birds , which consistently will be used for every batch.
• The sale prices and cost prices, of course, are subject to change – driven by market forces.
• Strict biosecurity and husbandry methods should be followed to maintain optimum broiler flock performance .

Pro tip: I recently launched a custom resource library called Poultry Project Hub .

The aim is to help you understand EXACTLY how to write a winning broiler farm project report.

It has over 20,501 words, 200+ rows of data tables, as well as 30+ screenshots/images, sample calculations, case studies and more.

I recommend using it to help you get your report watertight. Click here to find it.

Also, you must take into account these assumptions when reading this report:

• Availability of input items like (chicks, feed etc.)
• Proximity of the farm location to a viable marketplace
• Demand for broiler meat
• Trade stability (import and export balance)
• Availability of feed

Subsidised funding for such projects is offered by the government in the form of a Poultry Venture Capital Fund (PVCF-EDEG).

The goal of the Government in offering such subsidies is 3-fold:

• Encourage agri-entreprenurial start-up
• Increase production of existing operations
• Diversify the breeds and types of poultry raised commercially

Who can apply?

• Entrepreneurs
• Non-Governmental Organisations
• Social Enterprises…and more

How they work

Subsidy eligibility is typically broken down by region.

With priority funding allocation given to hard to reach communities like Ladakh and Kargil, for example.

All subsidies are paid back-ended.

In other words, are paid as a lump sum once you’ve cleared all loan repayments. This way your credit is discounted.

To qualify, you need to have been approved for a bank loan, with a certain degree of self-equity (margin money) invested.

How much you get

Subsidy monies are calculated and allocated as percentages of the overall project investment requirement.

Depending on the type of scheme, like APL or BPL for example,

You could expect to receive between 25% – 50% of your project requirement.

How much you need to fund

The margin money you need is 10%. The rest will be supplied by loan monies.

What you can spend the money on

There are 24 qualifying components for which you could be awarded subsidy money, including:

• type of poultry enterprise (e.g. breeding farm for low input technology bird, or hybrid broiler unit)
• refrigerated transport vehicle
• processing units

Learn more about poultry farm loans and subsidies here .

I based this project on deep litter, open-sided, brick broiler houses built on concrete foundations.

Something similar to this one, in Maharashtra State – India Poultry Farm No.1 :

You can find more on alternative poultry house styles here .

The following tables contain the data of this broiler farm project report (made using Poultry Project Reporter ):

TOTAL PROJECT COST

A summing up of the total amount of funds your project will need to start:

BROILER FEED COST

This is the cost of feeding your 4 simultaneously reared broiler flocks of 2,500 birds (each) using the 4+1 rearing system:

POULTRY FARM LOAN REPAYMENT SCHEDULE

This is the monthly schedule for repaying the principal sum of Rs. 17,117,852.50 + interest over a course of 72 months (6 years):

BROILER PRODUCTION

This is the production estimation for the no. of broiler birds successfully raised and sold at market according to the planned intervals of 4+1 rearing system:

BROILER MANURE PRODUCTION

This is a running estimate of the manure produced and revenues made from rearing the broiler flocks on this farm:

GUNNY BAG RESALE REVENUE

By reselling your used poultry feed gunny sacks there is potential supplementary income to be made in your broiler farm (this data, of course, is linked to your broiler feed consumption):

BROILER FARM SALES REVENUE

A combined statement of all your estimated farm sales revenue made:

DISCOUNTED CASH FLOW

Future forecasted cash flows for this broiler farm project, discounted by the comparative interest rate (which is a combination of India’s official inflation rate for 2020 and ICICI Bank offers Floating Rate  Savings Bonds 2020 ):

BENEFIT-COST RATIO

Ratio analysis of how much income vs. cost your overall project is scheduled to make:

Well, whether good or bad – it is honest .

(I’m never upset by the ROI outcome of an attempt at writing a project report. It’s there to tell me how to do things better.)

This particular set of conditions for this broiler farm using the 4+1 rearing method produce:

• negative cash flow
• a benefit-cost ratio below 1 i.e. loss making

Compared with other broiler farm project reports out there (which use All-In-All-Out or ‘AIAO’ rearing) this one seems unattractive.

(Good question.)

Looking at the detail, it’s using comparative price inputs and cost estiamtes.

So nothing revealing there…

Plus, it assumes land ownership already, just like most other project reports online that use AIAO rearing.

And so we look to the choice of rearing model…and there it is.

4+1 vs. AIAO broiler rearing model comparison

The 4+1 rearing system for broiler farming uses 5 birdhouses, not 1.

4+1 = better cash flow

The idea is that by rearing simultaneous flocks, you multiply your cash flows and smooth out business income.

By adopting this model,

You can expect to go to market with a mature flock every 2 weeks (rather than every 6 weeks, as with AIAO method).

This adds great business advantage fueled by more consistent cash flow.

4+1 requires more capital

The benefit of increased cash flow comes at the cost of having to build 5 houses…

(albeit hosting the same number of birds on your farm at any time e.g. 10,000 or 4x 2,500).

Although, the combined floor space of the 4+1 model buildings is the same as a 10,000 capacity birdhouse…

…there will undoubtedly be more effort and expense in building 5 separate houses.

Plus, 5 sets of feed wiring and storage containers etc.

There’s actually quite a bit of duplication involved.

Which presents an inconvenience to bird keepers too.

4+1 = higher operational expense

With up to 33 batches of broilers being produced every year using the 4+1 rearing model (compared to 6 with All-In-All-Out),

4+1 incurs greater operational expense because of routine repetition.

Activities like:

• bird transit
• house cleaning
• processing set-up

…for example, adds more cost to the bottom line of the multi-flock model.

Is there room for improvement?

One of the real value benefits of using the Poultry Project Reporter software is its ability to fine-tune poultry farming project reports.

A bit like a master craftsman gets his wood stock approximately in shape before adding perfecting refinements,

The 1st round results of using the Reporter software is like a rough 1st pass…

…then, I perform several tweaks to my numbers and inputs and model parameters to perfectly shape and hone my desired ROI outcome.

Where are things going wrong with the ROI in this report?

The key to this 4+1 rearing model ROI failure can be seen by taking a magnifying glass to the discounted cash flow (DCF) :

Broiler Farming Project – Discounted Cash Flows

Discounted Cash Flow (Year 1)

-5,381,571.98

Discounted Cash Flow (Year 2)

-532,897.37

Discounted Cash Flow (Year 3)

-605,263.93

Discounted Cash Flow (Year 4)

Discounted Cash Flow (Year 5)

Discounted Cash Flow (Year 6)

What we see is a sliding scale of highly negative cash flow figures in Year 1 gradually improve until a clear profit is made in Year 6.

What caused this?

I traced this effect back to the loan repayment schedule. (Earnings after interest payments was the only clue I needed…this is when the earnings dipped into negative values.)

Because of the hefty loan, interest repayments tail off and end completely even in year 6,

This is when we see the farm profit surprisingly bounce back and we hit positive cash flow.

The loan is particularly large compared with the All-In-All-Out version, because of:

• the additional capital expense of the houses
• plus additional operational overheads like electricity bills for rearing simulatenous flocks etc.

Suggested profit tweaks

In this case, to raise the project’s BCR from a loss-making 0.93 to a profit-making >1, I suggest:

• reducing the broiler house construction cost (perhaps using your in-house resource)
• cheaper feed cost
• cheaper chick cost
• more ‘margin money’, less loan
• government subsidy
• more meat revenue
• more manure revenue
• more gunny bag revenue
• add broiler by-product revenue

…these are almost 10 ways to notch up that 0.93 to a value above 1.

Discrepancies

One discrepancy with other reports online is meat yield . Poultry Project Reporter software that I used shoots for accuracy.

And as such, the carcass sales are adjusted for meat yield. This means the end bird weight is cut to 68.8% of the final weight for the sake of giving a realistic revenue figure.

In other words, as not to give you an inflated expectation on income – the software corrects the income figure.

Because this project report is written as a comparison to the other staple efforts online,

In the interest of comparing apples with apples – it carries some common omissions.

(You’ll want to plug in these gaps within your project report.)

Here are some of them:

• processing costs
• transport fees
• house cleaning costs
• depreciation costs
• deep litter costs

These costs are very REAL and would massively knock any broiler farming project report that left them out.

I would have included them in my report,

But again to help you make direct comparisons with reports out there, I keep parameters consistent.

(The Reporter software I use actually includes all of these omitted categories as standard. But it is also flexible enough to leave them out if you wish.)

Are you currently working on a broiler farm project report?

Have you produced project reports before?

Have I missed something out?

I’d be interested to hear from you.

Poultry Farm Business Plan

Over the past 20+ years, we have helped over 1,000 entrepreneurs and business owners create business plans to start and grow their poultry farms. On this page, we will first give you some background information with regards to the importance of business planning. We will then go through a poultry farm business plan template step-by-step so you can create your plan today.

Download our Ultimate Business Plan Template here >

What Is a Business Plan?

A business plan provides a snapshot of your poultry farm as it stands today, and lays out your growth plan for the next five years. It explains your business goals and your strategy for reaching them. It also includes market research to support your plans.

Why You Need a Business Plan

If you’re looking to start a poultry farm, or grow your existing poultry farm, you need a business plan. A business plan will help you raise funding, if needed, and plan out the growth of your poultry farm in order to improve your chances of success. Your poultry farming business plan is a living document that should be updated annually as your company grows and changes.

Sources of Funding for Poultry Farms

With regards to funding, the main sources of funding for a poultry farm are personal savings, credit cards, USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) loans, bank loans, and angel investors. With regards to bank loans, banks will want to review your business plan and gain confidence that you will be able to repay your loan and interest. To acquire this confidence, the loan officer will not only want to confirm that your financials are reasonable, but they will also want to see a professional plan. Such a plan will give them the confidence that you can successfully and professionally operate a business. Personal savings and USDA FSA loans are the most common funding paths for poultry farm.

How to write a business plan for a chicken farm.

If you want to start a poultry farm or expand your current one, you need a business plan. We detail each section of a traditional business plan for a poultry farming business.

Executive Summary

Your executive summary provides an introduction to your business plan, but it is normally the last section you write because it provides a summary of each key section of your plan.

The goal of your Executive Summary is to quickly engage the reader. Explain to them the type of poultry farm you are operating and its status. For example, are you a startup, do you have a poultry farm business that you would like to grow, or are you operating poultry farm businesses in multiple locations?

Next, provide an overview of each of the subsequent sections of your plan. For example, give a brief overview of the poultry farm industry. Discuss the type of poultry farm you are operating. Detail your direct competitors. Give an overview of your target customers. Provide a snapshot of your marketing plan. Identify the key members of your team. And offer an overview of your financial plan.  

Company Analysis

In your company analysis, you will detail the type of poultry farm you are operating.

For example, you might operate one of the following types of poultry farms:

• Breeder Farms : this type of poultry farm produces hatching eggs for delivery to the hatchery. After the 21 day incubation period, the hatchery then delivers the baby chicks to the broiler houses.
• Broiler Farms: this type of farm produces a 2.5 lb. to 8 lb. bird in 4 to 8 weeks which is processed for various types of retail sale to consumers, grocery stores or fast food chains as whole birds, cut-up breast, wings, thigh, drumsticks, deboned breast meat, or further processed pieces.
• Pullet Farms: this type of poultry farm produces pullets and roosters to be delivered to a breeder hen house at 20-22 weeks old when they are sexually mature to breed and lay eggs.

In addition to explaining the type of poultry farming business you will operate, the Company Analysis section of your business plan needs to provide background on the business.

Include answers to question such as:

• When and why did you start the business?
• What milestones have you achieved to date? Milestones could include the number of chickens and/or turkeys produced, number of production contracts, etc.
• Your legal structure. Are you incorporated as an S-Corp? An LLC? A sole proprietorship? Explain your legal structure here.

Industry Analysis

In your industry analysis, you need to provide an overview of the poultry farm industry.

While this may seem unnecessary, it serves multiple purposes.

First, researching the poultry farm industry educates you. It helps you understand the market in which you are operating.

Secondly, market research can improve your strategy, particularly if your research identifies market trends.

The third reason for market research is to prove to readers that you are an expert in your industry. By conducting the research and presenting it in your plan, you achieve just that.

The following questions should be answered in the industry analysis section of your poultry farming business plan:

• How big is the poultry farm industry (in dollars)?
• Is the market declining or increasing?
• Who are the key competitors in the market?
• Who are the key suppliers in the market?
• What trends are affecting the industry?
• What is the industry’s growth forecast over the next 5 – 10 years?
• What is the relevant market size? That is, how big is the potential market for your poultry farm business? You can extrapolate such a figure by assessing the size of the market in the entire country and then applying that figure to your target market.

Customer Analysis

The customer analysis section of your poultry farming business plan must detail the customers you serve and/or expect to serve.

The following are examples of customer segments: processors, grocery stores, and restaurants.

As you can imagine, the customer segment(s) you choose will have a great impact on the type of poultry farm business you operate. Clearly, processors would respond to different marketing promotions than restaurants, for example.

Try to break out your target customers in terms of their demographic and psychographic profiles. With regards to demographics, include a discussion of the ages, genders, locations and income levels of the customers you seek to serve. Because most poultry farm businesses primarily serve customers living in their same region, such demographic information is easy to find on government websites.

Psychographic profiles explain the wants and needs of your target customers. The more you can understand and define these needs, the better you will do in attracting and retaining your customers.

Competitive Analysis

Your competitive analysis should identify the indirect and direct competitors your business faces and then focus on the latter.

Direct competitors are other poultry farm businesses.

Indirect competitors are other options that customers have to purchase from that aren’t direct competitors. This includes producers of other meat such as beef, pork, or fish, as well as producers of meat alternatives. You need to mention such competition as well.

With regards to direct competition, you want to describe the other poultry farms with which you compete. Most likely, your direct competitors will be poultry farms located very close to your location.

For each such competitor, provide an overview of their businesses and document their strengths and weaknesses. Unless you once worked at your competitors’ businesses, it will be impossible to know everything about them. But you should be able to find out key things about them such as:

• What types of customers do they serve?
• What kinds of poultry do they produce (breeders, broilers, pullets)?
• What is their pricing (premium, low, etc.)?
• What are they good at?
• What are their weaknesses?

With regards to the last two questions, think about your answers from the customers’ perspective. And don’t be afraid to ask your competitors’ customers what they like most and least about them.

The final part of your competitive analysis section is to document your areas of competitive advantage. For example:

• Will you use superior production methods?
• Will you provide services that your competitors don’t offer?
• Will you provide better customer service?
• Will you offer better pricing?

Think about ways you will outperform your competition and document them in this section of your plan.  

Marketing Plan

Traditionally, a marketing plan includes the four P’s: Product, Price, Place, and Promotion. For a poultry farm business plan, your marketing plan should include the following:

Product : In the product section, you should reiterate the type of poultry farm company that you documented in your Company Analysis. Then, detail the specific products you will be offering. For example, in addition to traditional poultry, will you provide organic or cage-free poultry?

Price : Document the prices you will offer and how they compare to your competitors. Essentially in the product and price sub-sections of your marketing plan, you are presenting the products and services you offer and their prices.

Place : Place refers to the location of your poultry farm company. Document your location and mention how the location will impact your success. For example, is your poultry farm located near a processing facility, near a transportation hub, etc. Discuss how your location might be the ideal location for your customers.

Promotions : The final part of your poultry farm marketing plan is the promotions section. Here you will document how you will drive customers to your location(s). The following are some promotional methods you might consider:

• Advertising in trade papers and magazines
• Reaching out to local agriculture extension offices
• Social media marketing
• Local radio advertising

Operations Plan

While the earlier sections of your business plan explained your goals, your operations plan describes how you will meet them. Your operations plan should have two distinct sections as follows.

Everyday short-term processes include all of the tasks involved in running your poultry farm, including animal care / feeding, flock supervision, animal transportation, sourcing feed, etc.

Long-term goals are the milestones you hope to achieve. These could include the dates when you expect to sign your 20th production contract, or when you hope to reach $X in revenue. It could also be when you expect to expand your poultry farm to a new location.  

Management Team

To demonstrate your poultry farm’s ability to succeed, a strong management team is essential. Highlight your key players’ backgrounds, emphasizing those skills and experiences that prove their ability to grow a company.

Ideally you and/or your team members have direct experience in managing poultry farms. If so, highlight this experience and expertise. But also highlight any experience that you think will help your business succeed.

If your team is lacking, consider assembling an advisory board. An advisory board would include 2 to 8 individuals who would act like mentors to your business. They would help answer questions and provide strategic guidance. If needed, look for advisory board members with experience in managing farms or successfully running small businesses.  

Financial Plan

Your financial plan should include your 5-year financial statement broken out both monthly or quarterly for the first year and then annually. Your financial statements include your income statement, balance sheet and cash flow statements.

Income Statement

An income statement is more commonly called a Profit and Loss statement or P&L. It shows your revenues and then subtracts your costs to show whether you turned a profit or not.

In developing your income statement, you need to devise assumptions. For example, will you supply 50 restaurants, or produce 2,000 birds for processing each month? And will sales grow by 2% or 10% per year? As you can imagine, your choice of assumptions will greatly impact the financial forecasts for your business. As much as possible, conduct research to try to root your assumptions in reality.

Balance Sheets

Balance sheets show your assets and liabilities. While balance sheets can include much information, try to simplify them to the key items you need to know about. For instance, if you spend $50,000 on building out your poultry farming business, this will not give you immediate profits. Rather it is an asset that will hopefully help you generate profits for years to come. Likewise, if a bank writes you a check for $50,000, you don’t need to pay it back immediately. Rather, that is a liability you will pay back over time.

Cash Flow Statement

Your cash flow statement will help determine how much money you need to start or grow your business, and make sure you never run out of money. What most entrepreneurs and business owners don’t realize is that you can turn a profit but run out of money and go bankrupt.

In developing your Income Statement and Balance Sheets be sure to include several of the key costs needed in starting or growing a poultry farm business:

• Location build-out including design fees, construction, etc.
• Cost of equipment and supplies
• Payroll or salaries paid to staff
• Business insurance
• Taxes and permits
• Legal expenses

Attach your full financial projections in the appendix of your plan along with any supporting documents that make your plan more compelling. For example, you might include your farm title or lease, or blueprints of the production facility.  

Putting together a business plan for your poultry farm is a worthwhile endeavor. If you follow the template above, by the time you are done, you will truly be an expert. You will really understand the poultry farm industry, your competition, and your customers. You will have developed a marketing plan and will really understand what it takes to launch and grow a successful poultry farming business.

This professional reporting software will help you develop THE winning strategic formula for future business successes.

Meet your program instructor

Hello, I’m Temi Cole.

You may know me from finding my #1 poultry farming business planning resources online:

Or, perhaps…

Just in case you’ve missed them – you’ll find they are some of the most detailed learning tools for starting a poultry farm online:

As you’ll read next,

I recently developed this poultry farm project software (that actually helps you fine-tune a winning poultry business model).

What’s surprising is that I initially found poultry project proposals very confusing.

That is – before digging deep to develop my own winning formula.

My first attempt at producing a poultry project report was a disaster!

I first began researching poultry project reports about 4 years ago.

Like most, I knew the collateral value of a quality project report was MASSIVE.

So, I started looking for sample PDF reports online.

I found they followed a certain format (you know the kind of thing…):

• a list of economic parameters
• capital cost
• working capital
• income statement
• discounted cash flow
• benefit cost ratio
• net present value
• internal rate of return
• loan or mortgage repayment schedule

But what I couldn’t readily see was how the figures REALLY stacked up.

In others words,

…if you asked me to produce the same thing with my own input…

(Based on those templates) – I would be totally lost .

…for an economic analyst, pulling together a quality project report perhaps is a do-able task.

But then again, not every start-up farmer just happens to be an ex-economist too.

So, I began to question:

How would a beginner crack their own report?

And more importantly…

…how would they learn to make the most PROFITABLE real-life investment decisions?

That’s when I decided to stop taking those sample reports at face value.

I got out my calculator and began decoding and unpicking every step and every calculation – from scratch.

(So, I set myself the challenge of writing my own poultry farming project report.)

Then, something clicked…

The process taught me something VALUABLE!

I must have trawled through EVERY sample poultry project report on Google.

Line by line – deciphering both tangles and knots.

Doing this I learned an important lesson:

Most people think a project report is a funding proposal for getting a start-up loan. Instead, I discovered that funding isn’t the real fruit of producing a project report…

…But rather, making profitable investment & management decisions .

By doing this deep dive exercise,

I understood SO much more about what really makes a poultry farm profitable.

I turned this realisation into a system for taking a beginner in poultry and training them into a $100K/year poultry financial planner.

Here’s what I did next:

I got documenting my formula.

And applying it to real-life startup farming situations from around the world.

I took enquiries through my website and converted them into sample plans & step-by-step tutorials.

Take this one for example:

And the best part?

Using my system – the time taken and difficulty experienced was nothing.

(Think about it: Even for the most proficient financial planner – a quality project report could take days to perfect).

How long did my system take me?

An hour – MAX.

Because of this proven system that I developed, I quickly was able to churn out both layer and broiler reports of ANY SIZE, ANY WHERE…

…caged

…deep litter

…it really didn’t matter, it was BOTH fast and flexible.

And consistently ACCURATE.

That’s When I Considered: “Could This System Work for Other People Too?”

I was quite surprised with the results my system was getting.

But, if it couldn’t solve the problem of others (namely, the rank beginner) – at best, I figured, I could use it as a consultancy tool.

If the feedback was anything to go by…

…this system of writing a report would have MASSIVE value to those starting out – if only it was built for users.

So I did some fine tuning on theory, then I made it an accomplished step-by-step distance learning program & report generator.

I packaged it to be a software as a service (SaaS) and called it, Poultry Project Reporter.

(It simply does what it says.)

So here we are, for the first time ever…Poultry Project Reporter 2.0 is now open for license.

Executive Summary

Business overview.

Smith Poultry Farm is a new farm business located in Mason City, Iowa. The business is a newly established farm founded by John and Sue Smith. As native Iowans, the couple has spent their life in the farming industry as their families have established farms throughout Iowa. Currently, there is a poultry shortage throughout the midwestern United States as some farms have been forced to shut down their business due to rising costs, labor shortage, and higher technology standards. John and Sue have decided to take this opportunity to alleviate the poultry shortage as well as finally establish the farm they have been planning to do for the past six years.

As native Iowans, John and Sue have already recruited a team of farmhands that have extensive experience working in poultry farms. Most of them have been recently laid off from other poultry farms that have shut down their operations.

John and Sue plan on starting with 5,000 chickens, 500 turkeys, and 100 ducks on 10 acres of land. Their business operations will be centered around daily processes and procedures to tend to the chickens and prepare them for packaging for resale and distribution.

Once he married Sue, the couple decided that they would begin to save up to pursue a farm of their own.

Sue Smith was raised on a farm as well. Once she graduated from high school, she attended Iowa State to pursue a degree in Business Administration.

A few decades later, Myson’s son grew it into the large company it is today and is one of the largest poultry producers and distributors in the world.

By investing in technology, Myson was able to grow the brand. Through the development of better feeds and better disease control methods, chickens were maturing more quickly. These improvements, combined with increased competition, meant lower prices for consumers and households were able to purchase their poultry products in larger quantities.

Iowa Poultry Farm

Iowa Poultry Farms started in the 1920s when Liam Nelson sold and traded eggs by the dozen as a means to put food on the table for his family. Four generations later, the Nelson family has grown the business year-over-year to continue to meet the changing needs of the egg and pullet industry. More than 90 years of experience has established Iowa Poultry Farm as a well-respected pullet and hatching business as well as a reliant commercial egg producer under the current leadership.

The strength of Iowa Poultry Farm began when master plans for growth from the late 1980s to present day have produced new and improved pullet production facilities that have the capacity to accommodate the growth of the majority of the pullets in NPF’s proprietary facilities. Recent capital development has been invested in hatchery and breeder facilities that have the capacity to produce up to 9 million female chicks per year as well as supplementary aviary growing facilities for both cage-free and floor-grown conventional pullets.

Iowa Poultry Farm continues to innovate as a pullet and hatching business under the leadership of Frank and his son, Brett.

For example, if the operating expenses of your poultry business go up 5% more than what is in your business plan: you could make adjustments to correct the situation. 

You may also define goals and targets for the next 3 to 5 years and use your business plan to track your progress.

A trustworthy financial forecast is a necessary component of any business plan for a poultry farm, but it is not the only piece of information needed. 

To get a holistic view of your business, readers will also need to understand the context behind the numbers - and that comes from the written part of your poultry farm business plan, which we are going to be looking at next.

The written part of a poultry business plan is composed of seven main sections:

The executive summary

The presentation of the company, the products and services section, the market analysis, the strategy section, the operations section.

• The financial plan

The executive summary section of your poultry business plan should give an overview of the other six sections of the business plan (above) and should cover the following:

• A thorough overview of the poultry business
• Your goals and objectives
• Your business strategy
• The target market
• The organisational structure of your business
• Key financials and funding requirements

The executive summary section of your business plan should grab the attention of readers and encourage them to read the rest of the business plan

When writing this section of your business plan, you should cover the structure and ownership of the farm, its location, and its management team. 

The legal structure of the farm, such as whether it is a sole proprietorship, partnership, corporation, etc., as well as any ownership details, such as who owns what stake in the business and how that might influence decision-making, should be clearly described.

Next, information regarding the poultry farm's location must be presented to give readers a better understanding of its potential customer base. Providing location data, such as the street address and nearby cities and transport infrastructure will give potential investors an idea of how accessible the farm is for customers.

Lastly, a description of the management team and each individual's qualifications and experience in operating a poultry farm should be included. 

Through this information, potential investors will be able to assess the level of expertise and experience that exists within the team. 

For potential investors and lenders, the products and services component of your poultry farm's business plan is critical.

It should provide detailed information on what types of poultry (chicken, duck, turkey, etc.) your farm will be raising, how many birds it plans to produce, how much land and equipment is needed to run the operations and any other relevant details about production capacities.

This section should also include an analysis of the market for your products or services to demonstrate that there is enough demand for your business to be profitable. 

This includes researching competitors’ prices and marketing strategies, understanding customer needs, identifying areas where there may be untapped potential markets, and developing a strategy to differentiate yourself from the competition.

Additionally, this section should discuss any long-term goals or objectives related to product development or expansion into new markets that may help increase profitability over time.

When writing the market analysis section of your poultry business plan, it is vital to include information about demographics and segmentation, target markets, barriers to entry and competition. 

Demographics and segmentation should focus on the characteristics of the different customer segments in your target market. This information demonstrates to lenders and investors that there is demand for what you offer, that demand is sufficient, and that you have a reasonable grasp of the market.

Additionally, including information about your target market in your business plan ensures that the products and services your business offers are in line with market demands.

Finally, the competition analysis, when effectively presented, shows how viable your target market is and how well-positioned you are to compete.

When writing the strategy section of your poultry farm business plan, it is essential to include information on your competitive edge, pricing strategy, sales and marketing plan, milestones and risks and mitigants (how you will reduce risks). 

The competitive edge should explain why customers would choose your poultry farm over other businesses offering similar services, and discuss factors such as location, quality of product or customer service standards. 

Also, the pricing strategy should detail how you intend to price products for maximum profitability while remaining competitive within the market. 

It may also be useful to explain your sales and marketing strategy, which should describe how you intend to reach your potential customers and raise brand awareness through various channels, such as social media and print advertising. 

Furthermore, milestones that demonstrate to investors that you have defined growth and development objectives should also be mentioned. 

Lastly, describing potential risks with mitigations shows that you are aware of potential difficulties and have strategies in place to deal with them.

Presenting this information clearly in a business plan helps demonstrate that you have thoroughly considered all aspects of running your poultry farm successfully before launching operations.

The operations section of your poultry farm business plan should include detailed information about your staffing team, roles of staff members, and recruitment plan. It is also vital to list the specific positions that need to be filled, including those necessary for daily operations and those needed for administrative tasks. 

This section of the business plan should also include:

• The operating hours and any shifts or required rotations.
• The essential resources and intellectual property the company needs to run, such as permits and licenses.
• Information about which suppliers you plan to partner with, what kind of services they will provide and their commercial terms. 

When you provide investors with a comprehensive overview of the operations of your poultry farm, they will be better informed about how the business is expected to run and can make an educated decision about whether or not to invest in it. 

The presentation of the financial plan

In the financial plan section, you should talk about the financial forecast that we talked about earlier in this guide. 

This section is crucial because it contains all the facts necessary to demonstrate how much cash you will require and the costs associated with operating a poultry farm.

Now that you know what to include in a poultry farm business plan, it's time to discuss the tools and resources that can be used to create one. 

What tool should I use to write my poultry farm's business plan?

The three main options for drafting a business plan for a poultry farm are: using Word and Excel, paying a consultant to write the plan, or using online business plan software.

Create your poultry farm's business plan using Word or Excel

Creating a poultry farm business plan using Word or Excel might look like a cheap solution, but these programs have their challenges. 

• You start from a blank screen with no guided instructions
• It can’t be used to construct a financial forecast
• You have to be an expert in financial modelling to come up with an accurate forecast
• It takes a long time to create a complete forecast with Excel

Even if you successfully employ Word and Excel to create your company strategy, the problem of trust still exists. Will investors trust the outcome of your forecasts? That brings us to the next point.

Hire a consultant to write your poultry farm's business plan

Outsourcing a poultry farm business plan to a consultant or accountant is a viable option that can provide you with useful assistance while developing your business plan. 

Consultants are often experienced in writing business plans and accountants can create accurate financial forecasts. 

The only drawbacks to this solution are:

• Hiring a consultant or an accountant is expensive. The bare minimum for hiring a consultant is usually $2,000 (£1,500), excluding any additional changes required after the first version.
• An accountant will only help with the financial forecast section of your plan (you’d have to hire a consultant separately).
• There is the risk of them not understanding the poultry industry adequately to make recommendations or make a strong case to your financiers.

This leaves us with the third option.

Writing the business plan for a poultry farm yourself with an online business plan software

You might want to take matters into your own hands and write your poultry business plan using online business plan software. After all, nobody understands and is more passionate about your business than you do.

Some of the advantages of using an online business plan software are:

• It makes creating a financial forecast that will wow investors a breeze
• You don’t have to start from a blank screen (like in Word) and step-by-step instructions are provided for you for each section
• Helps you to confidently create your plan without worrying that you left out a crucial part
• Detail outline ensures that everything is covered
• Ensures that your plan follows the structure that investors and lenders expect
• You save time with the clear instructions provided
• Relevant examples are provided
• No knowledge of accounting required
• You don’t have to be a financial modelling expert
• No confusing Excel formulas
• A professional business plan template is provided, in which you could replace the texts and numbers with your business details to make it your own.

Hens, various birds, quails, guinea fowls, ducks et al are all birds that can be comfortably reared in a poultry farm. Chicken and birds are widely consumed in all parts of the world hence there is a large market for poultry farmers. If you are looking towards starting a livestock breeding business, then one of your options is to settle for poultry farming.

Poultry farming is a highly thriving and profitable business venture. Aside from the fact that people consume birds and chickens et al, supply of eggs is also a major source of revenue generation for poultry farmer.

It is on record that Americans consume more chicken than anyone else in the world – more than 90 pounds per capita in 2015 – the number one protein consumed in the United States. So also, in 2015, almost 9 billion broiler chickens, weighing 53 billion pounds, live – weight, were produced. More than 40 billion pounds of chicken product was marketed, measured on a ready-to-cook basis.

6. SWOT Analysis

Noble Ernest Poultry Farms, LLC do not intend to launch out with trial and error hence the need to conduct a proper SWOT analysis.

We know that if we get it right from the onset, we would have succeeded in creating the foundation that will help us build a standard commercial poultry farm and egg production company that will favorably compete with leading commercial poultry farms and egg production companies like Cal – Maine, Land O’Lake, Inc., Michael Foods and Rose Acres Farms in the United States of America and in the rest part of the world.

We engaged the services of a core professional in the area of business consulting and structuring to assist our organization in building a well – structured commercial poultry farm and egg Production Company that can favorably compete in the highly competitive commercial poultry farms and egg production industry in the United States and the world at large.

Part of what the team of business consultant did was to work with the management of our organization in conducting a SWOT analysis for Noble Ernest Poultry Farms, LLC. Here is a summary from the result of the SWOT analysis that was conducted on behalf of Noble Ernest Poultry Farms, LLC;

Our strength as a commercial poultry farm and egg production company is the fact that we have healthy relationships with loads of major players ( agriculture merchants ) in the industry; both suppliers of poultry feeds and medications and buyers of chickens and eggs within and outside of the United States of America.

We have some of the latest commercial poultry farming hatchery, tools and equipment that will help us raise and produce eggs in commercial quantities with less stress. Aside from our relationship ( network ) and equipment, we can confidently boast that we have some the most experienced hands in Santa Fe – New Mexico in our payroll.

Our weakness could be that we are a new commercial poultry farms and egg production company in the United States, and perhaps it might take us sometime to attract big time customers in the industry. We are aware of this and from our projection will overcome this weakness with time and turn it to a major advantage for the business.

• Opportunities:

The opportunities that are available to us as a standard commercial poultry farm and egg Production Company cannot be quantified, we know that there are loads of households, and businesses such as hotels and fast food restaurants that can’t do without daily supply of chicken and eggs. We are well positioned to take advantage of this opportunity

Some of the threats and challenges that we are likely going to face when we start our own commercial poultry farm and egg production company are global economic downturn that can impact negatively on household spending, bad weather cum natural disasters (draughts, epidemics), unfavorable government policies and the arrival of a competitor ( a commercial farm that engage in the rearing of chickens and other birds ) within same location.

There is hardly anything you can do as regards this threats and challenges other than to be optimistic that things will continue to work for your good.

7. MARKET ANALYSIS

• Market Trends

The Poultry and Chicken Egg Production industry has greatly benefited from campaigns advertising the health benefits of chickens and eggs as a good source of protein.

No doubt, the increased demand of chicken and eggs from households and food related businesses and of course the growing popularity of specialty and processed eggs have rapidly improved revenue growth for the industry. In the face of this growth, profit margin has suffered from rising feed costs and also regulations regarding animal welfare.

As a matter of fact, one of the new trends is that with the recent advancement in technology, poultry farmers can now comfortably predict and produce the quantities of chickens / birds and eggs per time.

8. Our Target Market

Naturally, the target market of those who are the end consumer of commercial poultry farm produce and also those who benefits from the business value chain of the poultry farming and egg production industry is all encompassing; it is far – reaching.

Every household consumes produce from commercial poultry farms be it chicken or egg. So also almost all hotels and fast restaurants sell chicken and eggs. In essence a commercial poultry farmer should be able to sell his or her chicken and eggs to as many people as possible.

In view of that, we have positioned our business to attract consumers of chickens and eggs not just in the United States of America alone but also other parts of the world. We have conducted our market research and survey and we will ensure that we meet and surpass the expectations we set for the business. Below is a list of the people and business that we will market our chickens and eggs to;

• Individuals
• Restaurants
• Fast food eateries
• Agriculture merchants

Our Competitive Advantage

Executive Summary

“Feather Grove Farm” (herein also referred to as “Feather Grove” or “the company”) was established on May 1, 2019 by Co-Founders, Mr. John Farmer and Ms. Emily Young. The company is strategically located to initiate a dynamic poultry farming venture in Louisville, KY.

In 2018, the United States imported and exported substantial amounts of poultry products, creating a notable gap in the market for locally produced, sustainable poultry. Feather Grove Farm aims to address this gap by establishing itself as a leading supplier of high-quality poultry products, reducing the reliance on foreign imports, and contributing to the growth of the domestic poultry industry.

Both Co-Founders bring unique skills to the venture. Mr. John Farmer, with a background in agricultural management, has successfully overseen various farming projects.

Feather Grove Farm is actively exploring opportunities in Kentucky for acquiring suitable agricultural land. The company is open to collaborations with local communities, government bodies, and fellow agriculture enterprises. This business plan outlines the strategic vision for Feather Grove over the first 5 years of operation, emphasizing positive contributions to the local community and economy.

Operationally, the business will encompass two core activities: (1) the breeding and sale of various poultry breeds and (2) the establishment of an educational farm experience, projected to launch in year 5. The breeding strategy involves constructing three state-of-the-art poultry houses, maximizing production capabilities and ensuring a consistent supply of high-quality poultry throughout the year. The educational farm experience, while contributing to community engagement and awareness, is seen as an integral part of Feather Grove’s broader impact strategy.

Currently, Feather Grove Farm is seeking a $1,340,000 loan to support the first year’s startup costs. The company projects breaking even within the first 18 months of operation and anticipates significant profits from the second year onwards. With support from stakeholders, Feather Grove aims to address the gap in locally produced poultry, create jobs, and establish a sustainable and profitable farming business that brings various benefits to the local community and the broader poultry industry.

To start a poultry farming Business, follow the given instructions-

5000 chickens Poultry farming Business plan project report

Selection of land for the busines must be very subjective. If you have enough non fertilized land then it is best for the subject.  

Area required for 5000 birds

If you are thinking about a 5000 chickens farm, then you must have at least 0.5m x 0.5m square meter area for a chicken till its full growing process time. That means you should have a 1500 square meter area of 15m x 100m. 

If you don't have this much area then your cost will depend on your area type. In a rural area, it is easy to buy land at a cheper price than in urban areas. 

It depends on you how much can you invest in buying an above-measured Land but you have to get this first for sure.

Poultry shed size and cost for 5000 birds

According to their land requirement, housing must be fixed to protect all the area surrounded. 

The house roof needs to be slopy-like hill regions to protect birds from over moisture in the rainy season.

You can manage to design the wall structure of Tin metal(which is cheaper), but it will not effective in summer. 

For a 1500 square meter area, you need 15x100 square meter dimensions to make housing.

Housing must have proper exhaust features and a drain system. It is not necessary but you can use layer platforms if you have a shortage of land.  

Housing will cost you around 300000 INR, including tin roof cover and labor. 

Chicken birds arrangement and cost

In case of broiler chicken bird, a small chicken bird cost around 10 INR, so total cost becomes 10x5000= 50000 INR( $670) for 5000 chickens.

• Gir cow milk per day
• Tharparkar cow milk per day
• Rathi cow milk per day
• HF cow milk per day
• Jersey cow milk per day

Vaccination of birds

Every chicken bird is insecure in the poultry farming business if they don't get proper vaccination.

If you ask veterinary surgeons, they suggest getting them to vaccinate after one month of their birth. 

Every chicken must be vaccinated because they are easily caught in infectious diseases. If even one of them has an illness, then the entire business comes under threat.

So make the sure birth period of chicken birds during buying them from the seller.

It will cost you around 15000 to 25000 INR for all birds.

Chicken feed for 5000 birds

The growth of chickens depends on their feed and cure.  

        Chicken Feed  is one of the most important the factor in the growth of chickens. If you give them a proper diet then they will take approximately 4 months to grow fully. 

Cereal grains  and  oilseeds mixture  in 70:30 respectively is the best diet in a study of food experts  cereal grains  are most of the part of the protein in their diet. 

                 The total feed for a chicken in a day is one-fourth of a pound in a day which is 113 grams per day.

Cost and requirement:

 That means you have to use 113 x 5000 = 565000 grams of chicken feed which is 565 kg daily. In the market, a 50 kg bag of the average quality of chicken feed is around 1300 INR. Around 12 bags of chicken feed is enough for a day. That means you have to spend 1300 x 12 = 15600 INR($208) daily. 

Water supply

You can ask for a connection with the local government water supply for the chicken farm. It is the best option. 

If you want to make an automatic system of water then you have to fix this at the time of construction.

 It will need long pipes with a hole beside next with fixed distance as same as the distance between two chickens or you can provide them water by making a slot for them directly.

Usually, in poultry farm people provide  them water in particular pots.

Cost and requirement:              

It will cost you 50 holes in a 100-meter pipe. That means you need a hundred pipes for the purpose. The pipes should be two inches thick. It will cost around 100 rupees per meter and total 100 x 100x 100 = 100000 INR($ 1334).

this cost is additional for the automatic system but you can use simple methods too.

A fully grown broiler is fixed based on its weight. A full-grown broiler chicken has an average weight of 2 kg. The broiler wholesale price in the market is 80 INR per kg. 

That means you will have 160 INR for a chicken. That takes towards earning of minimum 800000 INR.  

In the first year, you will get a profit of around 300000 to 350000 INR. Remember one-time investment cost is 3100000 INR. By this speed, you will get 3 batches every year and earn a profit of 1200000 INR. 

                   That means you will have to invest 3 years to recover your total cost of the business.  

After this, you will have a better model of earning and you can increase that too.  

Remember it's on you how you recover your construction cost by this profit. But this is sure that you will get fixed profit in every batch with little bit ups and downs. 

Is poultry farming profitable?

A general perception of starting a business is risky among beginners. Their thought process is very doubtful towards every business, which is a natural thing.

Poultry farming demands full knowledge and information on how to handle poultry birds in any case. Only reading knowledge is not enough to start a poultry farming business. 

Even sometimes those people don't get much profit who have poultry farm for a very long time. 

 Although poultry farming Business is highly profitable but it is also true that everyone doesn't get success in it.

Profit deciding factors in poultry farming

Only expertise can't give one larger return instead its major part is depends on the way of how business is performed. 

There are some factors that decide the success rate of the business.  

• Way of raising poultry birds
• Breed of bird
• Maintenance in temperature
• Structure of practicing the technique
• Basic investment
• Market value

Those who are able to manage these factors then they always own almost a guarantee to get a very good return.

Subsidy in poultry farming Business 

On state level, there are many states in India those provide subsidy on a small poultry business. 

There are some scales of subsidies in poultry farming but those are not effective or available for small farms. Mainly, subsidy starts from 3000 to 5000 poultry birds, which is up to 20 to 25% on loan provided from the bank. 

There are no specific subsidies on small poultry businesses as mushroom farming, gobar gas plant, polyhouse farming, etc. 

Challenges of poultry farming 

Following are some point to point challenges in the poultry farming business-

Beginners without training

People, who start poultry farming first time and they consider a profit from it without the training then they are wrong, 

One out of fifty people can be successful in the poultry farming business without training. The rest of them fail and they imprecate their luck after.

Without training, it is a challenge to execute the right things without mistakes while you can't take the risk. 

Infection diseases and care

Poultry birds get infectious diseases because of living and walking on moisture, particularly in the rainy season. 

Without proper feed and health check-ups, birds can keep fever for a long time. 

It is necessary to take regular check-ups of their health and keep them vaccinated.  

Feed quality 

You can't give rough feed to your poultry birds to grow properly. 

Chicken birds need high protein and mineral feed to sustain for the average time period.

Your diet plan for chicken depends on their size and growth period. It is not easy to provide proper feed on the fixed time period in bulk. 

Moisture and drain

In the rainy season, it is not easy to maintain proper dryness inside and outside the poultry farmhouse. Poultry birds like a dry atmosphere to live, 

It is not an easy task to maintain proper drain at least inside the poultry farm.

Temperature maintenance

If your housing shed is of metal(Tin), then it is challenging for every bird to survive in the summer season. 

The Tin shed gets hot quickly and keeps for 8 to 10 hours daily. This time period with high temperature can affect poultry birds and even they can die in it. 

It doesn't easy to maintain the temperature in summer and winters up to 20 to 30 degrees Celsius. 

Management with place

One of the major challenges in the poultry farming business is the management of land and birds. It doesn't matter you have  500 birds or  5000 birds if you are not able to manage them in an available place(according to their comfort)

The economic perspective of poultry farming 

Poultry farming is a long-term business, It can be last for more than 10 years, so it is important to understand its economic and organic/bio contributions and aspects.

• Poultry farming provides primary jobs on different scales. The employees of poultry farming start work from labor, caretaker to marketing work. 
• Poultry farming fulfills the high demand of people for consuming meat and eggs. It directly contributes to the market economy.
• Poultry farm waste can use in biofuel/gobar gas plants. Later it becomes better compost for agriculture.
• Poultry farming is a chain of multiple market products and market production. It increases the rate of production and consumption in the market. 

How was poultry farming affected during the lockdown?

Farms got total closed, the situation of loan providers and getters, impact on market economy, poultry farming equipment.

There are some basic equipment required in poultry farming. Some of them use inside the house and some of them use for birds.

Thermometer  - To check the temperature of birds and room from inside

Exhaust fans - To reduce the temperature to moderate.

Water pipeline for floor - to clean the floor and to maintaining hygiene.           

Vacuum cleaner - To clean the dirt and broken feather of birds.  

Driers - To dry the wet room and moisture.

Automatic Heaters - To maintain the temperature in winters to moderate. 

Precautions for poultry farming  

• You have to maintain the temperature inside the farm,/ because chickens can survive in a maximum of 35 degrees Celsius and a minimum of 10 degrees Celsius. 
• You have to feed them properly on daily basis. Feed must be cereal grains and oilseeds mixture. 
• Check their care from infections and diseases. 
• Use only males on the farm, Hen is for layer egg farming.

Poultry Farming

India’s per capita protein intake has been a source of worry for a long time. The cheapest and most readily accessible options are eggs and chicken meat. Traditional country birds produced in an integrated farming sector at the pond bank will provide the nutritional demands of impoverished communities. Farmers will have access to resources for the rest of their life because of this.

Furthermore, rural chicken farming may be combined with fish farming. Water and terrain are entirely used in this manner. The birds that grew up on the pond’s bank will act as fertilizer machines, enriching the pond’s nutritional status and increasing productivity. Integrated farming systems create job opportunities while lowering costs. Despite a tremendous increase in poultry production over the last few decades, rural poultry has mostly stayed the same.

This is because it has been a mostly ignored area. Focusing on diverse areas of parenting, improved management methods, and a scientific approach are the keys to success. This blog post will guide you through the country chicken farming project report or free-range chicken farming project report in India. Find the country/free range chicken farming project report below.

Because of the significant demand for local chicken, the birds and eggs they produce may be sold at any time of year in the local market. Low initial investments combined with better economic returns are a winning combination. The demand for country chicken, often known as ‘Desi Murga,’ in north India and brown egg variation is larger than for other breeds.

The quality and taste of the chicken and eggs are substantially greater if the birds are kept on an organic farm. Because the birds are grown in a stress-free environment, this procedure treats chicken wastes such as droppings, surplus feeds, and other wastes directly as organic manure, increasing crop output.

Unlike other kinds, country chickens do not require complex house preparations since they are tougher and more flexible. The homes must shield the birds from the elements, such as direct sunlight, rain, wind, and cold. During the winter, it should also guard them against frost. The birds are allowed to graze during the day and confined in confinement at night in a free-range rearing scheme.

Houses must be built in the north-south direction, not the east-west direction, to avoid direct sunlight and encourage optimal air circulation. The floor is raised to prevent water from accumulating and creating flood-like conditions. It must be devoid of rat problems and water cracks and be movable so that the dwellings may be moved if necessary. It must also be easy to clean. A bulb must be installed in the ceiling to keep the chicks warm and give them light.

Feed costs are low with country chicken compared to other types of raising because the birds are allowed to scavenge in the open. During scavenging, they collect and eat worms, insects, weeds, household debris, agricultural residue, and leftover grains to meet their daily dietary requirements of proteins, vitamins, minerals, and energy. Rice bran, broken rice, groundnut straw, and so on can be used as a supplement.

They were fed twice daily. The feed is kept for a month during the rainy season to avoid fungal contamination. An extra 30-60 grams of food supply per day might be given to the birds for enhanced performance. The feed is made with rice polish, wheat residue, and fish feed, and maize to provide vitamin, mineral, and salt requirements. The birds are fed typical beginner food for chicks available on the market during their growing period.

During the growing period, the birds are fed drumstick leaves, waste grains, mulberry leaves, and other foods in addition to the scavenged meal. The average body weight after 120 days must be between 1.3 and 2.4 kg. Furthermore, they must be fed modestly throughout the first several weeks to stimulate their eating habit. It also aids in developing skeletal feathers and a strong immune system.

Brooding 

During the first few days, they cannot maintain their body temperature. As a result, additional considerations must be made to preserve body temperature. Brooding is the term for this process.

Local broody chickens are utilized as sitters in natural brooding. All of the necessary nesting materials, as well as food and water, are provided to the hen. Incubation is done with eggs from enhanced varieties. The chicks are left with the mother to scavenge once the eggs hatch. Special arrangements are provided for the baby chicken and her mother in the evenings. At any given moment, a broody hen may look after 12-15baby chickens.

In this situation, no broody hen is employed. Instead, there is a facility for artificial heat to be supplied. Wood, charcoal, kerosene, sawdust, and other heat sources are employed. During the first week, the temperature is kept at 950 °F Fahrenheit. It is lowered by 50°F in the following weeks till the 6th week. In the brooding stage, moderate heat of 2 watts per chick is required.

Beak trimming may seem ludicrous, but it is necessary to prevent feed waste and fights between chickens. The third week is when the beak is trimmed, and roughly a third is removed. The most frequent way of beak trimming is to burn the beak using a hot iron. It stops beak growth by destroying the beak growth tissues. It is important not to burn the tongue during this process.

Care for Chickens

For country chickens, this is their growing season. With 95 degrees Fahrenheit heat, the hens shed should be able to keep up to 300 chicks. Broken rye, rice, sorghum, and maize can be used as chick feed in this situation. To avoid infections in developing hens, we should inject neo-machine and cephalexin. Furthermore, the drinking water should be warm and free of contaminants.

The feed supplied to the hens throughout this period will determine the chicken’s weight. It’s critical to ensure that a balanced diet provides the proper quantity of protein. The percentage of fiber in the diet should be 8%, and the energy accessible to chicks should be up to 2700 g/calorie.

Methoni should be given to the hens in their seventeenth week, and the chick’s head should be thrown into the water containing permethrin. If the chickens have a respiratory problem, the permethrin should be mixed with water. Cells and other parasites in the chicken’s head will vanish only then. The solution should also be sprayed over the farm’s floor.

During Summer   Season

In the summer, water is scarce. However, there should be no water scarcity when raising rural hens because the country chickens will die if not fed. They, on the other hand, cannot survive without water. Water is consumed twice as a feeder by hens raised for good weight. Hens do not have a natural gland to remove sweat from their bodies. As a result, the hens’ heat will be absorbed through their breathing. As a result, the hens drink a lot of water in the summer. We can give hens glucose or sugar solution to prevent heatstroke, and their thirst for water may increase.

During Winter   Season

The ground of the sheds will be cold during the winter. To avoid this, use sawdust on the floor to moderate the ground’s cooling. If the floor is excessively compacted, ammonia gas is produced, which causes eye discomfort in the hens and may result in sickness. As a result, the floor must be kept at a moisture level of 25 degrees.

Thank you for help and best regards

Well, there are many poultry set up consultancies. You can find many on indiamart dot come.

I thank you very much for farming project reports provided on this blog. I request you to kindly approve my project report and get it sanctioned from nabard as I am waiting for various projects for the last two years. I can also meet you personally for various reports.

The project applications should be met with all kinds of technical requirements to get it approved from NABARD. Your Local NABARD branch is right place of contact. We can’t help with your application process.

Hi, Can you please guide us how to make registration in the government for self finance Egg Layer farm. Is it required register as Private Limited Company or at District Industry Office registration is enough.

Your best point of contact is Poultry department of any Agriculture Institute.

Hi, I am looking to set up this farm in Mysore.I have a question in the report you have mentioned the selling price of egg as 1.08/egg but the actually selling price is above 3rs/egg right as my friend is doing the same business in UP and people take the egg from his farm paying rupee 4/egg.Please revert back.

Well, the report is old one and mentioned accordingly.But you should convert accordngly as per current trend.

Hi Sir, This is a very good project report and I want to start layer farming of 6000 NO.s. Please guide me what is the risk factor in it and can we get loans for this if yes then what is the procedure and how to get resources on it.

Well, You must have a time and dedication to be successful in layer poultry farming. Don not trust third part peeple to manage your farm. Unless you can able to dedicate your time and hardwork..It is not advisable.

Your Project is excellent, however, the problem is that it seems you do not want someone to use your project. Prove me wrong if you are not individualist and you do not want to share information for purpose development. I read a lot of your articles which I want to use in assisting me in setting up an agricultural project, I could not make a copy of your article.

The problem is people are making duplicate content.Hence downloads/printings are restricted

Good Project Report. Thank you.

Thank you so much for this article. Plus, I want to understand the break even point analysis. What value is successful and what value is poor.

Hello Jagdish Reddy! This is Kishore and I’m a App Developer and Could I use the Data you have provided here in my App which will be helpful to the People who are enthusiastic and excited to join into the Poultry sector? Thanks for any response.

hello i had already register my file at government off for last 5month but still taking time ….could u plz tell as how much time ty take to clear t file …

IS THIS INFO IS UPDATED INFO? IF YES THEN SEND ME

No we update soon

hi Jagdish, what do u suggest if a software professional wants to turn into layer poultry farm as full time worker. For better understanding:- ex:-If my(example) salary is 1 lakh net take home per month. If i completely move out of this and start a 15,000 poultry (exactly 15k capacity)farm would it be profitable business? i mean would i get 1 lakh income per month an average (not exactly but average income per month)? like agriculture i understand poultry is also subjected to nature conditions but f we do hard work with dedication with regular monitering..what would be the average monthly income?

Well, poultry is risky business.if you get sucees in layers, you can make good money when compared to a software professional. Start with small numbers where risk can be mitigated.Once you know in and outs of the layer poultry business..you can slowly increase the bird count. I never suggest to leave your fulltime job and get into that.

Hi….this is Sanjay from Kolkata.I want to set up layer poultry business in and around Kolkata. What would be the minimum land requirements for 100000 chicks to start with.
