What is the development prospect of poultry industry in rural areas now?

China is a big poultry producer. As the basic industry of animal husbandry in China, poultry breeding has become the most active growth point and main pillar industry of rural economy. With the poultry industry in China overcoming the negative impact of the bird flu epidemic, the poultry industry has maintained a steady development trend. Developing poultry industry is of great significance for accelerating the construction of modern animal husbandry, promoting the strategic adjustment of agricultural structure, improving people's quality of life and increasing farmers' income.

Poultry industry is one of the traditional industries of animal husbandry in China, with a long history of breeding. Since the reform and opening-up, the poultry farming mode has developed from courtyard-style free-range farming and specialized household farming in the 1980s to factory-scale farming in the 1990s. Up to now, the poultry industry has been super-large-scale corporatization and collectivization. Looking at the development history of poultry industry for more than 40 years, in addition to the continuous expansion of feeding scale, the continuous innovation of feeding management technology, breeding facilities and technology, the mechanization and automation of production management are also getting higher and higher.

In a sense, at present, poultry farming in China is still dominated by small-scale and large-scale groups, and based on the needs of social development, national policy promotion and industry development, gradually emerging large-scale and modern farming will become the future development trend. This is a process from artificialization to mechanization and automation, and it is a process of gradually liberating the labor force, improving quality and increasing efficiency. The original artificial feeding management, such as feeding and water supply, dung cleaning, egg picking, disinfection and ventilation, has now been replaced by automated mechanical equipment. As far as the present situation of poultry breeding is concerned, the main body of poultry breeding is large-scale corporatization, collectivization and leading, and the scale of poultry breeding is infinitely expanded.

Although the advantages of high production efficiency and low cost of poultry products abroad have caused great pressure on our poultry industry. However, under the leadership of a large number of key leading enterprises in China poultry industry, it has embarked on the road of industrial development, the supply chain has been improved day by day, and the level of domestic independent breeding has been greatly improved. China occupies an important position in the world trade of eggs and poultry meat.
