Hello Sir
For poultry business pls follow the below guidelines for loan u can easily get from NABARD and all other nationalised banks.
Select well raised land for poultry sheds. Land with hard rock is more suitable. Avoid water logging and flooding near the sheds. Provide separate sheds for growers and layers.
Ensure adequate facility for water, electricity, approach road, supply of chicks, feed, veterinary aid and nearness to market for sale of cull birds and eggs.
Obtain training/experience in layer farming before starting a farm. You should be prepared to stay on the farm and have constant supervision.
Provide adequate floor space per bird
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.
Provide strong roof and hard flooring. Raise plinth of the shed at least one feet above the outside ground level.
Provide 3 to 4 feet overhang of the roof to avoid entry of rainwater inside the shed.
Provide at least 50 feet distance between two sheds in the same sector and about 150 ft between growing and laying sector.
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.
Keep the shed clean and free from flies/mosquitoes etc.
After every batch of growers/culled birds is disposed off, 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.
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.
The litter material should be always kept loose and dry. Stir the litter twice a week. Any wet litter/droppings etc. should be removed and replaced with fresh/clean dry litter.
If cage system is followed, ensure that droppings are spread with lime powder or 10% malathion spray twice a month to prevent menace of flies. The droppings under the cage can be removed after 6 months.
Use scientifically designed cages and equipment for brooding, feeding and watering purposes. A good design can be shown and manufactured locally, so that cost can be reduced.
Purchase improved strain of one day old healthy egg type chicks from a reputed hatchery. Usually 2-5% extra chicks are supplied.
If cages are used for housing of birds ensure proper cage space i.e. half of the recommended floor space on deep litter.
Clean, wash and disinfect all equipments with 0.5% malathion spray after every batch of birds is disposed off
Use high quality balanced feeds. Starter feed (upto 8 weeks of age), grower feed (9 to 16 weeks of age) and layer feed (17 to 72 weeks of age) manufactured by reputed institutions/companies should be used.
Store the feed in clean, dry, well ventilated room. A wet feed may bring fungus infection.
Keep proper records on feed consumption per bird for each batch. About 7 kg. feed upto 20 weeks and 38 kg. feed from 21 to 72 weeks of age is required. Excess consumption may be due to feed wastage, rats, low temperature of shed or poor feed quality (low energy feed). Too low feed consumption may be due to disease condition, low quality/unpalatability of feed, high temperature in poultry shed.
Always give fresh and clean drinking water. Water should be always available at birds.
Clean sanitary conditions of poultry sheds and equipment, balanced feed, fresh clean water, healthy chicks are essential to prevent diseases.
Use high quality vaccines purchased from reputed manufacturers. Keep vaccines in cool, dry conditions away from sunlight.
Any bird showing advanced signs of a disease, should be removed from the shed and culled.
Ensure the constant and steady demand for eggs is available and the market is nearer to the farm.
Birds should not be kept on the farm beyond 18 months of age, as their egg production will go down considerably and their efficiency of feed conversion will reduce progressively as they grow older.
Processed birds should be marketed as early as possible. If they have to be preserved, deep freezing equipment (-10 to -200C) be used.
