Hello sir,
Requirements of good project
The bank officers also can assist in preparation of the scheme or filling in the prescribed application form.The scheme so formulated should be submitted to the nearest branch of bank.The bank will then examine the scheme for tec
hnical feasibility and economic viability.A.Technical feasibility - this would briefly include :
(a) Suitability of climate and potentiality of the area
(b) Technical norms including schedule for r
eplacement of flocks
(c) Facilities and infrastructure available for supply of inputs,
veterinary aid,marketing,training/experience of the beneficiary

Poultry Housing :
1. Select well raised land for poultry sheds. Land with hard rock or murram is more suitable. Avoidwater logging and flooding near the sheds.
2. Ensure adequate facility for water, electricity,approach road, supply of chicks, feed, veterinary aid and nearness to market for sale of live birds and dressed chicken.
3. Obtain training/experience in broiler farming before starting a farm. You should be prepared to stay on the farm and have constant supervision.
4. Provide adequate floor space, feeding space and watering space per bird (see details in Annexure
III). BIS specifications for construction of poultry shedsare available.
5. Construct sheds in such a way that the end walls face East-West direction and the side walls face North-South direction, so that rain water will not enter the sheds.
6. Provide strong roof and hard flooring. Raise plinthof the shed at least one feet above the outside ground level.
7. Provide 3 to 4 feet overhang of the roof to avoid entry of rainwa ter inside the shed.
8. Provide at least 50 feet distance between two sheds.
9. Provide adequate light and ventilation and comfortable housing conditions during all seasons (cool in summer and warm in winter).
Construct sheds in such a way that predators (cats/dogs/snakes) will not enter the shed. Avoid entry of rats by constructing rat proof civil structures.
10. Keep the shed clean and free from flies/mosquitoes etc.
11. After disposal of every batch of birds the dirty litter material and manure should be removed, walls
and floors should be cleaned, white washed with lime and disinfected with 0.5% malathion or DDT
insecticide spray.
12. If deep litter system is followed, always use dry and clean litter material (sawdust, paddy husk,etc.). Spread 4" layer of litter on the floor, keep clean/disinfect brooding, feeding and watering equipment and then introduce chicks in the house.
13. The litter material should be always kept loose and dry. Stir the litter twice a week. Any wetlitter/droppings etc. should be removed and replaced with fresh/clean dry litter

Chicks
:
16.Purchase of improved strain of one day old healthy broiler type chicks from a reputed hatchery. Usually
2-5% extra chicks are supplied.
17.Clean, wash and disinfect all equipments with 0.5%malathion spray after every batch of birds is
disposed off.
Feeding :
18.Use high quality balanced feeds. With proper knowledge/experience, the feed can be prepared at thefarm. Feed requirements of birds are shown in Annexure IV. BIS feed formulae and specifications are
available. Composition of some of the practical broiler diets is given in annexure V.
19.Store the feed in clean, dry,well ventilated room. A wetfeed may bring fungus infection.
20.Use properly designed feeders and control the rats to avoid feed wastage.
21.Keep proper records on feed consumption per bird for each batch. Compare with the standard feed
consumption pattern. Too low feed consumption may be dueto disease condition, low quality/unpalatability
of feed, high temperature in poultry shed.

Watering of Birds :
