Abstract

This study was piloted in Jimma Horro District of Kellem Wollega Zone, through the objective of evaluating smallholders’ chicken managing system of the area. An organized questionnaire and Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) approaches significant to Small holder chicken management were used to collect data. A study stayed piloted on the designated Households relating Small Holder Chicken Controlling Structure. The most leading chicken running classification in the survey part was a survival extensive method which is constructed on native and better chickens with hunting besides periodic additional breast-feeding of home-based particles then home nutrition rejections. As the views of respondent’s home chicken is basis of revenue that profits females subsequently around 99.4% poultry coverage of the District are described to be kept through females who remain supposed to be accountable for creation nearly entirely the main directions regarding chicken. About 86.7% of the respondents have no separate chicken household. Serious limitations of the smallholder chicken manufacture in the revision area were moderately due to the dominant lowly supervision observes, in specific disease, predator, absence of appropriate vigor attention, and lowly accommodation. It was decided that exertions have to be finished to move the manufacture standard to semi intensive aiming on business concerned with invention founded on searching with a universal care of facilities such as well-being, covering, delay, credit and selling to make it fruitful and supportable.
