Nripendra Pratap Singh, Ninad Bhatt, Sheikh Mohd. Usman and Pramod Chaudhary

The current review is an attempt to assess the condition of backyard poultry in India and its various management techniques practiced in India. There is not really any prerequisite of foundation arrangement required for backyard poultry farming and is mostly popular in backward and resource-deprived areas of India and provides rural families with good source of income, healthy food sources i.e. meat and eggs, alleviates women status in rural society and provide employment to needy, and also reduces the demand and supply gap of poultry meat and eggs. Significant limitations of backyard poultry farming in India are high death rate in chicks because of a frequent disease outbreaks, absence of framework, lower potential of desi chickens, absence of scientific information, predation, hunger, climate change and fluctuating feed supply and price all throughout year. Being the best option for the marginal and small farmers to their backup salary with very small input this farming needs an upliftment. Along these lines the sole goal of this review is to concentrate on different parts of backyard poultry farming in provincial India including essential understandings, it's favorable circumstances and some specialized tips for better management practices which the authors think will raise more mindfulness among researchers, farmers and Government associations.
