Good to have you here, sure you are doing great. Today we are going to take a look at the cost of producing 1000 broilers for eight weeks.

First what is broiler?

Broilers are domestic birds that are reared majorly for their meat, they grow faster than those reared for eggs. They are consumed all over the country and am yet to hear of a part of the country that rejects the meat of broilers.

Straight to work, we have been able to get ourselves acquainted with what broiler is, now the production expenses:

N.B: cost is made is Nigerian currency (naira #)

Purchase of 1000 day old broilers at 300 per one- 300,000

Medications (depending on maker): Antibiotics: 7,000

Vitamins: 5,000

Deworming: 1,500

Vaccination:

1^st, 2^nd 3rd Gumboro: 13,000 (Gumboro is given against infectious bursal disease)

1^st, 2^nd3rd Lasota: 4000 (Lasota is given to curb Newcastle disease)

1^st, 2^nd, 3^rd Coccidiostat: 3,000 (Coccidiostat is needed to curb Coccidiosis)

Feeding at an average of 5kg per bird from day old to sales: 500,000 (#100 per kg)

Miscellaneous: 30,000

Total= #1002,000.00

THE REVENUE

Mortality (birds that might die due to one issue or the other) 5%

5% of 1000= 50

1000-50= 950

Runts: 7%(for a first timer, the runts are those birds who won’t grow well, they have stunted growth) 7% of 950= 67

950-67=883

Selling at 2000 per one (worst sales price) 2000x883=1,766,000

Selling the runts at 1200= 67x1200= 80,400

1,766,000=80,400= 1,846,400
PROFIT

Profit= Revenue - cost

1,846,400 - 1,002,000=844,400.00

844,400 can be made in eight weeks, when the birds are well managed

You can see that broiler production is a viable business.

WASTE TO WEALTH IN AGRICULTURE

In animal husbandry, it has been agreed with proof that feeding alone takes over 60% of the total production costs. With continual rise in prices of conventional feed ingredients it has become imperative to device other cheaper but effective means to make feeds for livestock. One of these is the inclusion of industrial wastes in animal feed production. Although a number of factors affect the use of some of these materials, but with appropriate steps, they can be used with little or no side effects. Some of these wastes include: Rice and Corn bran Palm oil sludge Shea butter cake Brewery wastes Rice bran and corn bran can replace maize in animal diet and they cost less than 15% of the cost of maize, same thing with shea butter cake. Limiting factors in their uses include: High fibre contents High microbial load. ...
