Abstract: A study on the management practices and on the problems and prospects of the Hero's Farm in Tagaytay City was conducted to provide the readers with up-to-date in-formation about broiler raising. A total of 24,000 heads of chicks was observed. Elevated type of housing was the system used. The chickens were kept in the brooder house for a month before they were transferred to the growing house. At the age of 7-8 weeks they were disposed for sale. The broiler farm depended entirely on commercial feeds which were provided by the General Jailing Company where the farm was under contract. The farm was primarily engaged in meat production with the company responsible for hauling and marketing of the produced birds at an agreed price. Additional income was gained through the sales of empty bags, manures and culled birds. Problems that were encountered by the raiser were lack of technically trained manpower and insufficient supply of feed and other vital ingredients for poultry ration. The quality of feeds, financial standing, and environmental problems were only secondary. The prospects of the broiler farm were for profit and for food production.
