Background Information
• Kenyan Poultry industry is estimated at 30 million
domesticated birds (MALDM, 2005/06).
• 70% of total population – Indigenous chickens
• 28% - Exotic chickens• 28% - Exotic chickens
Of these:
- 20% are broilers
- 8% are layers
• 2% - Others (Ducks, Turkeys, Ostrich)

Summary• Poultry production in Kenya is categorised into 2
distinct systems based on scale, functions, breeds, husbandry and productivity. These are, “backyard / village poultry production systems ” using the indigenous birds and “commercial intensive systems” using broilers or layers for egg production through special purpose hybrid chicks.
• Backyard system – accounts for >70% of all chickens kept in Kenya. This is predominant in rural families in Kenya, at a proportion of 90% (MALDM 1996)
• commercial systems – intensified smallholder to medium scale farms in peri -urban areas
Two poultry production systems represented in Kenya
Bio-security and
management levels
Localisation
Backyard/village
production systems
(Sector 4)
•Minimal biosecurity
•free unselected flocks
•multi age
•mixed species
•low management levels
•whole country in all the 8 provinces
•Minimal in Nairobi and N/Eastern
•Highest practise in Rift •Highest practise in Rift Valley and Nyanza
The intensive
commercial
production (Sector 2-
3 )
• Moderate to high biosecurity
under sector 2
•Raising broilers, layers or
parent stock
•Low management &
biosecurity under sector 3
•Intensive commercial
husbandry system
•Whole country in 7 provinces
•Minimal/none in N/Eastern
•Highest practise in Central and Nairobi
