The lack of government support to provide banking facilities and agricultural production requirements to poultry farmers has negatively affected the development of production and led to the reluctance of most entrepreneurs to exercise this activity for high production costs, especially feed and chicks. The field study conducted by the researcher showed that the percentage of projects in the production line does not exceed 5% of the total number of projects in the study area. The production capacity does not exceed 30% of the project's design capacity. The weight of the chicken in the best environmental conditions to (1600) g within a period of (45) days.
