Presentation delivered at the CIALCA international conference 'Challenges and Opportunities to the agricultural intensification of the humid highland systems of sub-Saharan Africa'. Kigali, Rwanda, October 24-27 2011.
Mithun (Bos frontalis) is a unique large bovine species that is genetically different from cattle and buffalo with diploid chromosome number 58. It is endemic to four northeastern states viz., Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, Mizoranm and Nagaland. Mithun is reared mainly for meat purposes. Though it gives 1 - 1.5 liters of high-quality milk. Due to continuous efforts of ICAR-NRC on Mithun, Medziphema, Nagaland, this unique species is getting popularized. More and more framers are adopting a semi-intensive rearing model developed by ICAR-NRC on Mithun. If reared scientifically on a commercial scale, Mithun husbandry can fetch good income for the farmers and help in doubling farmers' income.

This presentation, created by Syed Faiz ul Hassan, explores the profound influence of media on public perception and behavior. It delves into the evolution of media from oral traditions to modern digital and social media platforms. Key topics include the role of media in information propagation, socialization, crisis awareness, globalization, and education.

2. 85% of all households in sub-Saharan Africa keep poultry
70% of poultry are owned by women
Poultry products (eggs, meat and organs) are a potentially valuable
source of high-quality protein and bio-available micronutrients for
children in rural areas
Chickens present an opportunity for household income
throughout the year, through the sale of birds and egg
This study is intended to assess existing chicken-keeping practices
in Sanza ward and to propose possible interventions to maximize
the benefits obtained from village chickens
BACKGROUND
3. METHODOLOGY
Baseline data from a five-year longitudinal study following
households with children under 24 months of age and an expressed
interest in chicken-keeping
Sanza ward, Manyoni district – first of five project locations
Sample size (240) based on stunting figures in children under 5
years (42% at a national level)

4. METHODOLOGY
Pre-tested, structured questionnaires in Kiswahili
Trained members of community collected data through interviews
Local languages (Kigogo and Kisukuma) used where appropriate
Household members over 16 years were eligible to respond
Intended respondents’ gender were 50% male and 50% female
Topics included:
Ownership of chickens
Reasons for not keeping chickens
Feeding practices
Chicken housing
Use of poultry products
Seasonal patterns in mortality, consumption and sale
5. RESULTS
Ownership
51.7% of households were keeping chickens in May 2014
Of households keeping chickens, 53.5% were reported as
male-headed and 38.5% as female-headed
Average number of chickens per HH was 10.5
Average number of adult chickens (more than 5 months) per
HH was 4.7
Average number of growers (2 -5 months) per HH was 4.4
Average number of chicks (day old to 2 months) per HH was 9

11. DISCUSSION
Potential areas for intervention
Increasing chicken flock size
Promoting feed supplementation for chickens
Improving the quality of supplementary feed
Promoting disease control
Educating on the importance of chicken housing
Promoting use of poultry products (including sale and consumption)
Providing entrepreneurship education
12. CONCLUSION
Promoting village chicken-keeping is an important avenue towards
combating under-nutrition for the poor
Education on the use of poultry products by pregnant women,
breastfeeding women and young children should be emphasized
