Poultry rearing has always been an integral component of livestock production system in India. Poultry production in India has taken a quantum leap in the last four decades, emerging from an entirely unorganized and unscientific farming practice to a commercial production system with state-of-the-art technological interventions. Indian commercial poultry sector has advanced remarkably due to a scientific approach adopted by the industry and an enabling environment created by the Government. The Indian Poultry Sector is broadly divided into organized and unorganized sub-sectors. Needs for each of the subsectors are very different. Government of India is catering to the needs of each of the subsectors through development programs of Poultry Development and for entrepreneurship development. Central Poultry Development Organizations are playing a pivotal role in the coordination and dissemination of these developmental programs of the Government.
