The document provides information on the current status of the poultry industry globally and in India. Some key points:
- Globally, poultry meat production is projected to grow 2.3% annually until 2023 to 134.5 million tonnes, making it the largest meat sector.
- In India, the poultry industry contributes Rs. 11 lakh crore annually and is the 3rd largest egg producer and 5th largest broiler meat producer worldwide.
- Telangana is a major poultry producer in India, with an annual broiler production of 20 crore and egg production of 3.2 crore. The industry provides employment and economic opportunities.
The feeding component in rural and peri-urban smallholder pig systems in UgandaILRI
In the last 30 years, Uganda has had a massive growth in pig population, and currently has the highest per capita consumption of pork in East Africa (3.4 kg year-1). About 90% of the pigs in Uganda are produced in smallholder farms under typical crop-livestock systems, even in the peri-urban setting. This poster presents information from a study to characterize the pig feeding systems in Uganda in terms of the use of local feed resources and gender roles.

This document provides a summary of the RP-Asia program committee presentation to the 95th ICRISAT Governing Board meeting. It discusses ICRISAT's contributions to achieving SDG2 of ending hunger and malnutrition through its work in crop improvement, integrated crop management, and the ICRISAT Development Centre. Key points include the release of improved varieties of chickpea, groundnut, pigeonpea, sorghum and pearl millet globally. Case studies from India, Myanmar, Ethiopia and Tanzania show increased crop production and farmer incomes from adopting these varieties. Projects in India demonstrate the benefits of integrated watershed management and soil health initiatives in increasing crop yields and water storage.

An Integrated Farming System Model in the Innovation Center of Agro-TechnologyESD UNU-IAS
1. The document describes an integrated farming system model used at the Innovation Center of Agro-Technology (PIAT) at Gadjah Mada University in Indonesia.
2. The PIAT facility covers 35 hectares and includes agriculture, animal husbandry, fisheries, recycling, and various other activities in an integrated manner.
3. A material flow analysis was conducted to analyze the inputs and outputs of the main activities at PIAT, including agriculture, animal husbandry, recycling, and fish farming. The analysis found the activities to be in balance and supportive of a sustainable integrated farming system.
This document provides an overview of supply chain management for broiler production in Thailand and South Africa. It discusses the key elements of broiler supply chains in each country. In Thailand, the broiler industry is highly integrated and efficient, with large commercial farms producing over 70% of broilers. The supply chain is vertically coordinated to ensure quality and timely delivery. In contrast, South Africa's broiler industry is less efficient, with high feed costs, a reliance on imported maize, and infrastructure challenges that disadvantage smaller producers. Recommendations are provided to improve South Africa's broiler supply chain.

Indian Poultry Sector in Transition - Knowledge Day 2016Poultry India
The document discusses the Indian poultry sector, which is one of the fastest growing industries in India. It is the third largest egg producer and fifth largest chicken meat producer globally. The poultry sector employs over 6 million people and is mostly located in Southern India. The key raw materials for poultry feed include maize, rice bran, wheat bran, and oil meals. The poultry value chain includes backward linkages for inputs, the core poultry farming activity, and forward linkages for processing and value addition. The sector is transitioning to use more automation, rural development projects, improved farming concepts, and sustainable practices around land, water, energy and waste management. There are also opportunities to increase exports
