Chicken farming in Tanzania has witnessed significant growth in recent years, thanks to the increasing demand for poultry products and the government’s support for the sector. This article provides an overview of the latest news and industry reports on chicken farming in Tanzania, highlighting key trends and developments.

According to the Tanzania Poultry Association, the country’s chicken production has seen a remarkable increase, with annual production reaching over 300 million birds. This growth is attributed to the expansion of commercial chicken farms, which now account for 60% of the total production.

One of the key drivers of this growth is the government’s initiative to promote agricultural development in the country. The government has introduced various policies and incentives to encourage farmers to engage in chicken farming, including subsidies on feed and vaccines.

Industry reports indicate that the demand for chicken meat is expected to grow further, with urbanization and an increasing middle class contributing to this trend. Moreover, the rise of fast-food chains has also played a significant role in driving up the demand for chicken products.

However, challenges remain. The high cost of feed and the prevalence of diseases such as Newcastle Disease and Fowl Cholera continue to pose a threat to the sector. To address these challenges, farmers and industry players are increasingly investing in modern farming technologies and practices.

One such technology is the use of automated feeders and waterers from LIVI Machinery, a leading supplier of poultry equipment. These advanced systems help optimize feed and water distribution, leading to improved productivity and reduced labor costs.
