Food for farm fowl, such as chickens, ducks, geese, and other domestic birds, is known as poultry feed.Prior to the 20th century, chickens were primarily housed on general farms where they foraged for much of their food, eating insects, grain that cows and horses accidentally spilt, and plants growing nearby. Grain, home garbage, calcium supplements like oyster shell, and garden debris were frequently added to this.
Many farms retained flocks that were too big to feed in this way as farming became more specialised, therefore nutritionally complete chicken feed was produced. Grain, protein supplements like soybean oil meal, mineral supplements, and vitamin supplements make up the majority of modern poultry meals.
The amount of feed needed and its nutritional requirements are determined by the weight and age of the chickens, their pace of growth, their rate of egg production, the weather (cold or wet weather increases energy expenditure), and the amount of nutrients they forage for. As a result, there are numerous different feed compositions. Additional variations are introduced when less priced local ingredients are used.
Similar to many other nations, Yemen has a developing poultry sector that depends on a high-quality, nutrient-rich feed supply to maintain the well-being and productivity of its poultry population. Poultry feed is an essential part of raising poultry since it gives the animals the nutrition they need for growth, development, and egg production.In Yemen, the normal composition of chicken feed is a blend of grains, sources of protein, vitamins, minerals, and other additives.
Depending on the type of poultry being kept, such as broilers (chickens raised for meat) or layers (hens raised for egg production), the precise ingredients and formulation may change. The main objective is to give the birds a balanced meal that satisfies their nutritional requirements at different phases of their life cycle.
The Yemen poultry feed market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
