The main aim of the exhibition is to help keep abreast with the latest developments and practices in poultry management, poultry health and nutrition, poultry breeding and new techniques in feed manufacturing and poultry production, Garware said.
The poultry farmers, breeding companies, integrators and animal health nutritionists can see the progress of their peers and review the usefulness of such procedures and practices for their national and international poultry productions, he said.
Citing government figures, the organisers said India's broiler production for 2017 is projected to increase by 7.5 per cent to over 4.9 million tonnes. The layer production for 2017 is forecast at 84 billion eggs, up 5 per cent from 2016.
