Abstract

The aim of this work is to identify the technical performance and evaluate economic competitiveness of broiler chicken farms in the conditions of the free trade agreements in the region of Tizi-Ouzou (Algeria). Methodology: A random sample of 120 farms spread over the entire territory of the wilaya (district) was investigated. Results: The results of the principal component analysis showed five groups of farms according to the size and the number of the broiler belt. The average size of the flock was 3,850 broilers with five flocks per year. The broiler buildings do not meet all the standards. The overall quantity of feed consumed by broiler chicken was 6.03 kg. The average live weight was 2.84 kg reached in 58 days. The production index was 207. The average production cost was 158.67 AD/kg (1.20 €/kg), of which 67% was represented by feed costs. These economic performances would allow breeders to generate a gross margin of 21.72 AD/kg (0.17 €/kg). Conclusion: The present study suggests that despite the introduction of Algeria into the free trade agreements and the poor performance of broiler farms, theses poultry farms are still retaining significant shares of the national market.

自由贸易协定地区肉鸡养殖场的业绩和竞争力:以tizi-ouzou(阿尔及利亚)为例

这项工作的目的是确定Tizi-Ouzou地区(阿尔及利亚)自由贸易协定条件下肉鸡养殖场的技术性能并评估其经济竞争力。方法:对分布在整个维拉亚(区)境内的120个农场进行随机抽样调查。结果:主成分分析结果显示，按肉鸡带的规模和数量分为5组养殖场。鸡群平均规模为3850只，每年5个鸡群。肉鸡舍不符合所有标准。肉鸡的饲料总消耗量为6.03 kg。58 d平均活重2.84 kg。生产指数为207。平均生产成本为158.67 AD/kg(1.20欧元/kg)，其中饲料成本占67%。这些经济表现将使育种者产生21.72 AD/kg(0.17€/kg)的毛利率。结论:目前的研究表明，尽管阿尔及利亚加入了自由贸易协定，而且肉鸡养殖场的业绩不佳，但这些家禽养殖场仍然保持着全国市场的重要份额。
