“…Many poultry farmers still work at a subsistence, small, or medium-sized level mainly due to limited financial resources (Aboki et al, 2013). Hamid et al (2017) examined the performance of the poultry industry in Bangladesh focusing on the contribution of private sector for the development and marketing of poultry products. The study also investigated the problems and constraints of poultry industry and the scope and opportunity cost of poultry industry.…”

This study examined the effects of poultry production on agricultural output in Nigeria. Specifically, this study is tailored to explore the effects of poultry birds' production, poultry eggs production and poultry meat production on agricultural output. The period covered by the study spanned from 1975 to 2016. Data on the variables of interests were obtained from the Food and Agricultural Organization Statistics (FAOSTAT) and National Bureau of Statistics. The analytical techniques comprise OLS and error correction model. The Phillips-Perron unit root test results show that all the variables have unit root at levels test, but become stationary after being differenced once. The cointegration test results indicate that each of the test statistics show evidence of two cointegrating equations. This suggests that in actual fact long run relationship exists among the variables. From the parsimonious ECM, it was revealed that poultry birds production negatively influence agricultural GDP. Poultry eggs production has an insignificant effect on agricultural GDP as evidenced in the parsimonious ECM. The result further shows that poultry meat production is associated with a positive and significant coefficient. The implication of this finding is that the production of poultry meats enhances agricultural GDP through its important contribution to the livestock sub-sector. It was discovered from the result that the coefficient (-0.378) of error correction has the intended theoretical negative sign and also satisfies the statistical condition at 1 percent level. It is clear from this finding that any short run disequilibrium in the system can be corrected in the long run at 39 percent. Thus, this study recommends amongst others that governments at all levels should evolve measures that promote huge commitment to infrastructural development in agricultural sector in order to boost poultry output and promote self-sufficiency in poultry farming.

“…Layer farming in commercial level is not only a good source of employment, income, and food but also act as a strong socio-cultural linkage in a country like Bangladesh. Now about 18222 registered commercial layer farms are available in Bangladesh (Hamid et al, 2017). The demand for the egg is increasing rapidly with the increasing of the population.…”

“…22192/ijarbs.2017.04.05.017 20.65 % of the total livestock contribution (Khan and Roy, 2006). It is found that, poultry meat alone contributes 37% of the total meat production in Bangladesh (Hamid et al, 2017). Poultry meet up the demand of about 22-27% of the total animal protein in Bangladesh (Prabakaran, 2003).…”

“…Poultry industry is the most vital for its contributions to national economy also in the spheres of generating employment more than six million people (Hamid et al, 2017), creating additional income and improving the nutritional level of this country and egg is one of the main products of poultry farming (Omar et al, 2013). About 23.5 million poultry eggs are produced per day in Bangladesh (Hamid et al, 2017).…”

The study was undertaken to analyze the existing egg marketing system of commercially produced eggs in some selected areas of Narsingdi district to estimate cost and margin of egg traders and to identify problems and suggested measures to improve the existing marketing system of eggs. Seventy (70) farmers were selected as total sample size where 22 and 48 were egg traders. Farmers were selected conveniently where traders were selected both randomly and purposively. Five different channels were identified according to present egg marketing system. The average gross return of aratdars-cum-wholesaler, retailers, and suppliers for 100 eggs are found Tk. 42.50, Tk. 42.50 and Tk. 43.75 respectively. The average cost of aratders-cum-wholesaler, retailers, and suppliers for 100 eggs were found Tk. 9.41, Tk. 7.51 and Tk. 10.74 respectively. The net margin of 100 eggs were calculated and found Tk. 33.09, Tk. 34.99 and Tk. 33.01 respectively for aratdars-cum-wholesaler, retailers, and suppliers. So development of this enterprise is helpful in employment generation and poverty alleviation. Some problems were identified associated with the marketing of commercially produced eggs and their remedial measures for improving the existing marketing system were also suggested.

Assessment of biogas production and bacterial load from manure of layer chicken fed with two different types of feed

et al. 2022

Background: The focus of this research was to assess the biogas production of Chicken Manure (CM) collected from hybrid layer chickens fed non-commercial (CMNC) and commercial (CMC) feed, as well as to evaluate the bacterial load of feeding stock and digested slurry samples before and after Anaerobic Digestion (AD). The effects of the feedstock and digestion composition of CM on biogas production were measured. The experiment was carried out utilizing lab-based proto-type digesters for CM with or without inoculum. For each commercial and non-commercial feed, four experimental groups (CMNC1, CMNC2, CMC1, and CMC2) were designed using mixing ratios of CM: H 2 O: inoculum (25:25:50) and CM: H 2 O (50:50). For Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT), the digesters were set up at ambient temperature (28-34 C) for 30 days. The spread plate technique was used to determine the Total Viable Count (TVC), E. coli, and Salmonella spp. counts. Results:The highest average cumulative biogas yield was achieved from CMC2 > CMNC2 > CMC1 > CMNC1. The biogas production of inoculum added groups were statistically significant (p < 0.01) than the without inoculum groups. The average concentration of CH 4 and CO 2 in biogas was 49% and 51% for CMNC1, 58% and 42% for CMNC2, 46% and 54% for CMC1, 52% and 42% for CMC2. However, the H 2 S content was within the acceptable range except for the CMNC2 group. The bacterial load was decreased by 2-3 logs before and after AD, and this reduction was statistically significant (p < 0.05). Conclusion:The study concluded that the CM diluted with water and inoculum (25:25:50) ratio was recommended for sustainable biogas production.
