Dear All, 

I am Oluwatosin Kennedy Oko from Department of Animal Science,University of Calabar, Nigeria.

I want to express my gratitude to the organizers of the E-conference.This is a good forum to share experiences, challenges and opportunities encountered in different regions regarding family poultry production.

I would like to agree with Dr. Victor Olori that emphasis should be placed on how research and development activities could improve family income and encourage sustainable production and consumption by the rural families. 


on point 2(the
development for livelihoods through family poultry — cost and
opportunities), i strongly believe that poultry diversification into the production of microlivestock such as quails and rabbit could improve the livelihood of the populace. Micro livestock production greatly complements conventional poultry production as they are less capital and labour intensive with high nutritional and medicinal benefits.
