Project Proposal on Poultry Farming
Introduction
Poultry production is a vital component of the global food supply chain, providing
a significant source of protein-rich food for human consumption. However, there are
various challenges in the poultry industry, including disease outbreaks, environmental
concerns, feed costs, and market demands. This project proposal aims to optimize poultry
production practices to ensure sustainable and profitable farming.
Objectives
The main objectives of this project are:
a. To evaluate and implement best management practices (BMPs) in poultry

production, including biosecurity measures, nutrition management, vaccination
programs, and waste management.
b. To optimize the use of resources, including land, water, and energy, in poultry
production to minimize environmental impact and maximize efficiency.
c. To develop strategies for disease prevention and control, including early detection,
rapid response, and biosecurity measures, to mitigate disease risks and reduce
losses.
d. To conduct a cost-benefit analysis of different production systems, including
conventional, organic, and free-range, to determine the most economically viable
and environmentally sustainable approach.
e. To explore innovative technologies, such as precision farming, automation, and
data analytics, to improve production efficiency, animal welfare, and product
quality.
Methodology
The project will be conducted in multiple stages, including:
a. Literature review: A comprehensive review of existing literature on poultry

production practices, technologies, and market trends will be conducted to identify
knowledge gaps and potential areas of improvement.
b. Field data collection: Data on farm management practices, production
performance, environmental impact, and economic indicators will be collected from
local poultry farms to assess current practices and identify areas for improvement.
c. Implementation of BMPs: Best management practices will be evaluated and
implemented in collaboration with local farmers to optimize production practices,
including biosecurity measures, nutrition management, vaccination programs, and
waste management.
d. Resource optimization: Strategies for optimizing the use of resources, including
land, water, and energy, will be developed and implemented to minimize
environmental impact and maximize efficiency.
e. Disease prevention and control: Disease prevention and control strategies,
including early detection, rapid response, and biosecurity measures, will be
implemented to mitigate disease risks and reduce losses.
f. Cost-benefit analysis: A cost-benefit analysis of different production systems,
including conventional, organic, and free-range, will be conducted to determine the
most economically viable and environmentally sustainable approach.
g. Exploration of innovative technologies: Innovative technologies, such as precision
farming, automation, and data analytics, will be explored and implemented to
improve production efficiency, animal welfare, and product quality.
Expected Outcome
The expected outcomes of this project include:
a. Improved poultry production practices: Implementation of best management

practices (BMPs) in collaboration with local farmers is expected to optimize
production practices, leading to improved production performance, animal welfare,
and product quality.
b. Resource optimization: Strategies for optimizing the use of resources, including
land, water, and energy, are expected to minimize environmental impact and
maximize production efficiency.
c. Disease prevention and control: Implementation of disease prevention and control
strategies, including early detection, rapid response, and biosecurity measures, is
expected to mitigate disease risks and reduce losses.
d. Cost-benefit analysis: Conducting a cost-benefit analysis of different production
systems will provide insights into the most economically viable and
environmentally sustainable approach to poultry production.
e. Adoption of innovative technologies: Exploration and implementation of innovative
technologies, such as precision farming, automation, and data analytics, is
expected to improve production efficiency, animal welfare, and product quality.
Conclusion
Optimizing poultry production practices is essential for sustainable and profitable

farming. This project proposal aims to evaluate and implement best management
practices, optimize resource use, prevent and control diseases
Computation
Assumptions:
• Type of poultry: Broilers (meat chickens)
• Initial stock: 1,000 chicks
• Production cycle: 42 days
• Feed conversion ratio (FCR): 1.7
• Selling price of broilers: PHP 100 per kilogram (live weight)
• Mortality rate: 5%
• Fixed costs: PHP 50,000 (for housing, equipment, and initial supplies)
• Operating costs: PHP 1,500 per day (for labor, electricity, water, and other variable
costs)
Calculation:
1. Total Cost of Chicks: 1,000 chicks x PHP 25 per chick = PHP 25,000
2. Total Cost of Feed: Assuming an average consumption of 2.5 kg of feed per broiler
and a 5% mortality rate:
• Total Feed Consumption = (1,000 chicks x 2.5 kg/broiler) x (1 + 5% mortality
rate) = 2,625 kg
• Total Cost of Feed = Total Feed Consumption x PHP 30 per kg (average
cost of broiler feed) = PHP 78,750
3. Total Operating Costs: Assuming a production cycle of 42 days:
• Total Operating Costs = PHP 1,500 per day x 42 days = PHP 63,000
4. Total Cost of Production: Sum of Total Cost of Chicks, Total Cost of Feed, and Total
Operating Costs:
• Total Cost of Production = PHP 25,000 + PHP 78,750 + PHP 63,000 = PHP
166,750
5. Total Revenue: Assuming an average live weight of 2.5 kg per broiler and a selling
price of PHP 100 per kg:
• Total Revenue = (1,000 chicks x 2.5 kg/broiler) x PHP 100 per kg = PHP
250,000
6. Gross Profit: Total Revenue - Total Cost of Production:
• Gross Profit = PHP 250,000 - PHP 166,750 = PHP 83,250
7. Net Profit: Gross Profit - Fixed Costs:
• Net Profit = PHP 83,250 - PHP 50,000 = PHP 33,250
