"Poultry farming in India,in spite of several constraints, has progressed considerably during the last decade. The present book has been undertaken to examine various aspects related to the growth and development of poultry production in the country. Poultry production in India was confined to backyards till recently. Local breed of birds were reared for the supply of eggs and meat. The increasing demand for poultry products necessitates augmenting the supply by importing improved breeds of poultry. The proportion of hybrid populations in the total population of poultry was about 2 percent. Within a couple of decades, these birds have dominated the market sidelining the indigenous birds. The technological advances have revolutionized the role and the structure of poultry industry in India. The government has to consider the poultry farming and has to solve the problems to encourage huge emerging business that earn national income and provide employment to the rural masses."--Back cover.
