Poultry farming involves raising domesticated birds, primarily for their eggs and meat. Common types of poultry include chickens, ducks, turkeys, and geese. Farmers provide proper housing, nutrition, and care to ensure the health and productivity of the birds. This practice can be done on a small scale, such as backyard flocks, or on a larger commercial scale.
The poultry industry plays a significant role in the global food supply, providing a source of protein for millions of people. Effective management practices, including biosecurity measures and disease prevention, are essential to maintain flock health and maximize production. Sustainable practices are increasingly important to minimize environmental impact.
