Poultry industry becomes an emerging industry in India, which provides large employment both directly and indirectly in India, with an annual turnover of US$ 7500 million. From past two to three decades, poultry production has been rising at the rate of around 8 percent per annum. So it is a concern of government to boost this industry in terms of financial assistance, because it has much potential in generating income and employment in India.
