Abstract

This study was carried out to know the current scenarios of rearing backyard poultry in Jhenidah district of Bangladesh. A total of 2832 poultry birds (deshi chicken, sonali, duck and pigeon) were selected from 170 households. The data were collected according to prepared questionnaire. The study revealed that, most of the farmers reared their poultry in semi scavenging system (97.64%). The poultry houses were commonly made of tin and bamboo (88.82%) and some of farmers kept their poultry in houses which were at unsatisfactory level (11.2%). They used polythene, sack, ash, sand, straw, papers separately or together as bedding materials (78.82%) and 21.18% of farmers did not use any bedding materials. They usually cleaned poultry house irregularly (73.53%). The rice (84.71%) as feed supplement followed by boiled rice, paddy, broken rice, wheat and commercial as well,  was commonly given twice (62.9%) in a day. The farmers did not usually use feeder and waterer (44.12%) and use only 8.82% of vaccine. The supplementary feed to each deshi chicken, sonali, duck and pigeon per day were 32.77 g, 38.70 g, 82.04 g and 12.40 g gaining average body weight of 1.19 kg, 1.36 kg, 1.22 kg and 315.35 g respectively. The average egg production per deshi chicken, sonali, duck and pigeon per year were 37.27, 47.30, 84.66, and 19.90 containing average weight 35.01 g, 41.20 g, 52.68 g and 11.10 g successively. Furthermore, the mean hatchability was found 77.50% in deshi chicken, 79.25% in sonali, 78.95% in duck and 97.45% in pigeon along with 28.79% significant (P<0.05) mortality in deshi chicken, 30.35%  in sonali, 14.50%  in duck and 11.40% in pigeon consecutively. The prevalence of diseases were investigated as Newcastle disease, fowl cholera, duck cholera, duck plague and pigeon pox. Diseases (54.1%) are the most current constraints followed by lack of knowledge, predators for poultry rearing in backyard system. This study will support farmers by enhancing their income through improved management practice in backyard poultry. Asian J. Med. Biol. Res. 2023, 9 (1), 1-8
孟加拉国杰尼达区后院家禽的管理制度和生产力:一项调查
开展这项研究是为了了解孟加拉国杰尼达区后院饲养家禽的现状。选取170户家禽2832只(德氏鸡、索纳利鸡、鸭、鸽)。根据编制的问卷收集资料。研究表明,绝大多数养殖户采用半食腐饲养方式(97.64%)。家禽舍以铁皮和竹材为主(88.82%),部分农户的家禽舍饲养水平不理想(11.2%)。分别或一起使用聚乙烯、麻袋、灰、沙、秸秆、纸张作为床上材料(78.82%),不使用任何床上材料的农户占21.18%。不定期打扫禽舍(73.53%)。以大米(84.71%)作为饲料补充,其次是白米饭、稻谷、碎米、小麦和商品大米,每天最多喂两次(62.9%)。农民一般不使用饲料和水(44.12%),仅使用8.82%的疫苗。日补料量分别为32.77 g、38.70 g、82.04 g和12.40 g,平均体重分别为1.19 kg、1.36 kg、1.22 kg和315.35 g。德市鸡、索纳利鸡、鸭和鸽子的年平均产蛋量分别为37.27、47.30、84.66和19.90只,平均体重分别为35.01 g、41.20 g、52.68 g和11.10 g。德市鸡、索纳利鸡、鸭和鸽的平均孵化率分别为77.50%、79.25%、78.95%和97.45%,死亡率分别为28.79%、30.35%、14.50%和11.40%,显著(P<0.05)。调查了新城疫、禽霍乱、鸭霍乱、鸭鼠疫和鸽痘的流行情况。疾病(54.1%)是目前最大的限制因素,其次是缺乏知识、在后院饲养家禽的捕食者。这项研究将通过改进后院家禽的管理实践,帮助农民提高收入。亚洲医学杂志。Res. 2023, 9 (1), 1-8
