A poultry enterprise refers to a business or operation involved in the breeding, rearing, and production of poultry birds, primarily for meat (broilers) and eggs (layers). Poultry enterprises can range from small-scale backyard operations to large commercial farms.
Government schemes and programs launched for poultry development in India include:
National Livestock Mission (NLM): This mission aims to promote sustainable development of the livestock sector, including poultry, through various interventions such as breed improvement, health care, and capacity building.
Integrated Livestock Development Scheme (ILDS): This scheme supports the establishment of small poultry units, provides training and extension services, and promotes breed improvement and disease control.
Poultry Venture Capital Fund (PVCF): This fund provides financial assistance and support to poultry entrepreneurs for establishing and expanding poultry ventures.
Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (RKVY): RKVY supports poultry development by providing financial assistance for infrastructure development, breed improvement, and capacity building.
Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana (PMMSY): While primarily focused on fisheries, PMMSY also includes components for promoting poultry farming and entrepreneurship in the fisheries sector.
These government schemes and programs aim to boost poultry production, improve breed quality, enhance productivity, provide employment opportunities, and contribute to overall agricultural and rural development.
