New colored feathered birds developed for meat and egg production for rural
poultry
Dr.Gurram Srinivas
DEFINITION:
• Rearing of poultry in small numbers in the backyards under free range or semi-intensive system having either crossbred/commercial birds.
Dr.Gurram Srinivas
Introduction
• Percapita consumption in urban – 80-120 eggs- 2.5-3.5 kg
chicken whereas in rural 5-10 eggs & 750 gm
chicken.• Further, these poultry products are expensive
rural areas due to non availabilty.• Rural people consume rice, which is rich in
energy and low in protein.• Protein malnutrition of rural people
Dr.Gurram Srinivas
The special features of these native breeds are:• Well adapted to traditional backyard farming• Low or no inputs and survive well on scavenging and leftover
feed• better resistance to diseases• Thrive well in harsh conditions and from predation• Good mothering ability• Adaptive advantages of coloured plumage, smaller body size,
alertness and fighting qualities• Tastier meat when compared to broilers.• Supplementary source of income to the rural poor and
contribution to family nutrition• In spite of the above advantages the major limiting factors are:• • Low egg production and• • Slower growth rates
Dr.Gurram Srinivas
GIRIRAJA•First backyard variety. •Karnataka veterinary Uni•It is a polycross, resemble local fowls in plumage color and pattern•released in1989. •Easily acclimatize to varied agro climatic regions•more tolerant to many diseases •Adapted well to scavenging conditions•Very popular all over the country and also abroad

SWARNADHARA 15-20 eggs more eggs than
Giriraja chicken. Compared to Giriraja breed,
Swarnadhara breed are smaller in size with a lighter body weight, which makes them easier to escape attacks from predators such as jungle cats and foxes
reared for its eggs and meat. It attains maturity - 22-23rd
week. Hens 3 kg and the cocks 4 kg. 180-190 eggs in a year.

KRISHIBRO
• Developed by the DPR (Directorate of Poultry Research), Hydereabad.
• MEAT TYPE• Attain body weight by 6 weeks of age with less

Advantages of Rural Poultry low investment, Maintenance cost& risk. Needs minimum care Eco-friendly hardy to diseases Thrive well in harsh conditions Survive well from predation Efficiently utilizes local resources (kitchen waste) Blends with the prevailing social structure and local farming
Provides nutritional security for the household.
Dr.Gurram Srinivas
Easily be integrated with other Agriculture, aqua & livestock farms. Income generating activityProvides economic empowerment to village women.Serves as an efficient waste disposal systemCan improve rural livelihood. Pest control & weed clearance
Dr.Gurram Srinivas
Constraints:Several constraints that slow down
• Low quality feed Poor marketing system High disease incidence
Weak extension services
Low productivity of country chicken
Dr.Gurram Srinivas
• Low quality feed:
Perform better with supplementary feed.
Semi-intense units should have access to a well balanced
diet.
Feed to be formulated with locally available materials.
Mini size feed mills should be encouraged.
Knowledge of feed formulation should be desseminated.
Sub-optimal performance is atrributed to lack of feed by extension service.
Polluted water.
Dr.Gurram Srinivas
High disease resistance:
• Vaccination against RD, Fowl pox, MD
Dr.Gurram Srinivas
Poor marketing system:
Middle man dominate the rural marketing denying the benefit to the farmer.
Dr.Gurram Srinivas
Weak extension services
• Most of the failures are due to: Lack of knowledge Lack of experience In sufficient exposure to poultry rearing
Dr.Gurram Srinivas
• Providing extension services including management, vaccination, disease diagnosis, market information, supplementary feed.
