Abstract:
Poultry droppings can help to increase the egg and meat production by 10-20%. The size of eggs and chickens will improve if light is provided in the sheds at the night time from bio-gas. Which may come from poultry excreta. The solid residue of it after digestion by anaerobic process can be used as a very rich feed for cows, buffaloes, goats and sheep with or without further treatment. It is the richest feed that animals can get and can also be recycled in poultry feed. By digestion of droppings in a bio-gas plant, the nutrient quality of the residue is improved and it becomes richer in nitrogen, phosphates and potash and can be used as fertilizers, Various processes Involved in converting poultry droppings into cattle feed and methane have been adequately detailed.
