CHICKEN AND MILLENNIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALS!!!

The poultry value chain holds the key to sustainable millennium goals and food security. Chicken and eggs are nutrient packed with various minerals and vitamins essential for growth and development.

 The nutritional needs of children can be provided by incorporating eggs and chicken in their food.The MDG, to achieve universal basic education can be accomplished by encouraging children to go to school,by providing a meal /day for pupils.

 The school feeding programme can utilize eggs and chicken in the packaged food,this will enhance growth and development, proper brain development,with good muscle development. This will keep the children in school,healthy,strong and eager to learn. 

 The training in poultry rearing and production can achieve four of the MDGS;
 1) eradicate poverty.2)reduce child mortality, 3)improve maternal health and 4 )encourage universal primary education. 

When low income earners are empowered with starting stock,trained in poultry keeping, not only will they have balanced meals but also generate income from sale of products. Training and establishment of mini poultry in schools, will provide the eggs and chicken for the feeding programme. This will also generate income for school,thus expanding the stock.

This initiative will also boost the school agric project,as more students will be interested in poultry rearing.This they can replicate in their communities thus eradicating poverty,reduce child mortality and prevent maternal death. Get chicky and ensure food security.!!!!
