Poultry Sector Sees Growth as Farmers Adopt Better Biosecurity

Poultry farmers across the region are reporting improved production and healthier flocks following increased adoption of modern biosecurity and farm management practices.

According to agricultural experts, better hygiene, controlled farm access, and improved vaccination programs have helped reduce common poultry diseases while increasing egg and meat yields. Support programs and training initiatives aligned with recommendations from Food and Agriculture Organization have also played a role in improving farmer awareness.

Feed availability has stabilized in recent months, helping to control production costs. As a result, poultry products such as eggs and chicken meat remain an affordable source of protein for many households.

However, experts continue to urge farmers to remain vigilant, especially during seasonal weather changes that can increase disease risk. Regular veterinary checks and proper housing ventilation are strongly recommended.

With growing demand for poultry products and continued investment in farm practices, the poultry industry is expected to remain a key contributor to food security and rural employment.
