Abstract

This study aims to report the trends in chicken meat production, importing, and per capita consumption in the Sulaymaniyah governorate, as well as, identify the challenges and opportunities of poultry sector development to become a substantial contributor to food security and poverty alleviation in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI). This study reviews ten years of data on the production of broiler chicken and per capita consumption patterns from 2011 to 2020, in the Sulaymaniyah governorate in KRI. The data from this study explain that more than half of the broiler chicken production projects are located in the Sulaymaniyah governorate. Thus, the growing number of poultry projects has significantly contributed to increasing local broiler chicken meat production by 6 folds and achieving 85.44% of self-sufficiency in broiler chicken meat production, even though their productivity is lower than their production capacity due to the high rate of broiler chicken mortality and uncertain supply chain management. Furthermore, frequent fluctuations and instability in the production rates are observed during the last decade, as broiler chicken meat production increased from 1,669.77 tonnes in 2011 to 20,034.06 tonne in 2015, then dropped to 11,802.36 tonnes in 2016 then rose again to 23,816.13 tonnes in 2019 and then declined again to 11,352.23 tonnes in 2020. These fluctuations and instabilities in local production may harm agri-food production sustainability and food security in the KRI in general, and, the Sulaymaniyah governorate in particular.

苏莱曼尼亚省肉鸡生产趋势与粮食安全
本研究旨在报告苏莱曼尼亚省的鸡肉生产、进口和人均消费趋势,以及确定家禽业发展的挑战和机遇,使其成为伊拉克库尔德斯坦地区(KRI)粮食安全和减贫的重要贡献者。本研究回顾了库尔德斯坦地区苏莱曼尼亚省 2011 年至 2020 年肉鸡生产和人均消费模式的十年数据。研究数据表明,一半以上的肉鸡生产项目位于苏莱曼尼亚省。因此,尽管由于肉鸡死亡率高和供应链管理不确定,肉鸡生产率低于其生产能力,但家禽项目数量的不断增加极大地促进了当地肉鸡肉产量增加 6 倍,实现了 85.44% 的肉鸡肉产量自给自足。此外,在过去十年中,肉鸡肉产量频繁波动且不稳定,肉鸡肉产量从 2011 年的 1,669.77 吨增加到 2015 年的 20,034.06 吨,然后在 2016 年下降到 11,802.36 吨,然后在 2019 年再次上升到 23,816.13 吨,然后在 2020 年再次下降到 11,352.23 吨。当地产量的这些波动和不稳定性可能会损害整个库尔德地区,特别是苏莱曼尼亚省农业食品生产的可持续性和粮食安全。 关键词家禽;肉鸡;肉类消费;粮食安全;苏莱曼尼亚;库尔德斯坦地区
