"Kukhuree Kan" III

The news media continues to report on the growth of the poultry sector in Nepal. This time they are attributing the increase to the rise in consumption-- coming mostly from the record level arrival of tourists in the country.

Despite protracted power cuts and adverse industrial climate, the country´s poultry sector is set to register an impressive growth of 24 percent, recording turnover of over Rs 41 billion during the current fiscal year 2010/11, shows a projection report. --MyRepublica

It will be interesting to see how the sector copes with the increasing cost of feed and volatile supply of energy. As local farms start to grow these issues will seem paramount and vital to their existence. Also, the poultry entrepreneurs need to focus their attention on the supply chain--not just upstream but also downstream-- to stay competitive and flourish.
