Comparison of Village Poultry Activities in Afyonkarahisar and Kütahya Provinces

Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the current status of village poultry breeding activities in Afyonkarahisar and Kütahya provinces and the important problems encountered in breeding. The study material consisted of 300 survey data from breeders in Afyonkarahisar and Kütahya. According to the research findings, 79.4% and 92% of the breeders in Afyonkarahisar and Kütahya provinces, respectively, were under 60 years of age. 64.7% of the breeders in Afyonkarahisar and 78.7% in Kütahya stated that they preferred local breeds, and almost all of them stated that they did not use additional lighting, heating, and ventilation. The main problems in both provinces are disease, feed prices, lack of shelter, and marketing. Providing support to the main problems of breeders through various support and incentive packages can contribute to the sustainability and development of village poultry breeding in the Afyonkarahisar and Kütahya provinces.
