Challenges of starting a poultry farming business
1. Poultry farming has a longer pay back period
2. It is Labour intensive
3. Pests such as rats, ants, etc. and predators such as hawks, snakes can cause massive loss
1. Lack of support from the government
Taking a close look at some African countries today, you will attest to the fact that the government shows little or no interest in poultry farming. The government is more interested in other sectors thereby not showing concern to poultry farming and this brings discouragement to the poultry farmers. Even the assumed agricultural loan the government provided cannot be accessed because of the stringent conditions attached. So, if you are interested in starting a poultry farming business, then you must be prepared to go into it alone without looking to the government for help
2. High start up capital
The very first factor you have to give serious consideration to is capital. Just like every other business, poultry farming needs sufficient and proper funding. This is because the amount of capital you have to invest has a lot to do with the level of success you would achieve in poultry farming. If you have enough capital, you would be able to put facilities that would increase your productivity in place.
You cannot do well as a livestock farmer, especially poultry farming when you don’t have enough fund. You need money to purchase a land for the farm, to construct and equip the farm, to hire and pay staff/labourers and also to feed and provide health care for your birds
without proper funding, you will struggle to keep your business afloat but with enough capital; business is made easier. So it is advisable that you do your financial analysis very well and ensure you have access to cash because nothing kills a business faster than lack of money
3. Outbreak of diseases
Environment is another major factor that needs to be considered, disease and infection is inevitable. Birds like chicken are very sensitive to environmental changes. If the poultry environment is not properly taken care of, the chickens will be exposed to diseases like bacterial infection. So as a poultry farmer, you must ensure that the poultry environment is kept clean and disinfected
4. Non availability and affordability of vaccines
In the agro-allied industry, especially poultry farming; this particular challenge affects the small scale poultry farmers more because, unlike the industrial or commercial poultry farmers who can afford the vaccines, small scale poultry farmers can’t afford the vaccines
5. Adulteration and high cost of poultry food
Price of poultry food is quite costly and birds consume a lot. So most poultry farmers economize or ration the food given to the birds and this affects the output. Also, adulterated poultry food flooding the market is another challenge for poultry entrepreneurs. This is because the adulteration utters the necessary nutrients the birds need in order to grow well, thus making them unhealthy and reduces their immunity to diseases. So normally we advise farmers to buy feed mill and make food themselves. You could find how feed mill works in our product list
