Business Plan About Kuroiler Farm Planned by Aswin Pradeep &satheesh Chandran
Business Plan About Kuroiler Farm Planned by Aswin Pradeep &satheesh Chandran
Introduction
We all know the proverb , “self help is the best help” .A prominent example for this
facts is nothing but our business plan , “KUROILER FARM”, which means it is an innovation
process when compared to an existing process (example : broiler farm).Almost all of the
business depends upon other people, at least a single person is needed for promotional activities.
But this business requires a single man work. Meanwhile it is a self employment opportunity to
business interestors .
This is one of the most important things to draw up as part of your operation. It tells of
what goals you wish to achieve and how you intend to get there. It's also a plan of how you want
to operate your business from not just a producer's standpoint, but the banker's, lawyer's,
accountant's and even possibly the hired hand's stand point.
We cannot start up nor maintain a chicken farm or a chicken farming business without
these dire necessities. We will need buildings to raise our chickens in, whether they be barns or
hutches depending on how we are wanting to raise our chickens: conventional or free-range?
Land is to have the buildings on and to grow crops on to feed our chickens. Equipment and
machinery are needed to clean barns, dispose of dead stock, work crops, etc.
There are two main ways to raise them. Conventional systems have chickens confined
to barns that are temperature and photo-period controlled areas. Free-range systems allow your
chickens to just about have the run of the farm to behave as naturally as possible.
If the area we are in is popular for raising chickens a certain way (more conventional
than free-range), we may wish to pursue a niche market that targets the consumer's interest in
free-range chickens rather than the conventionally-raised ones.
Advertise our self by simply letting other people know us have eggs or meat you
want to sell. Often selling by word-of-mouth is a lot cheaper and still the most popular means of
advertising than paying for an advertisement in the local newspaper that may get read by only a
few people. However, there is no harm in doing that either, nor is there any harm in setting up a
website promoting our product.
HISTORY
Introduced in the early 1990s, the breed was created by Vinod Kapur of Kegg Farms
Private, ltd., and the name is a portmanteau of Kegg and Broiler Rather than all being raised in a
central hatchery,Kuroiler eggs are hatched in more than a thousand "mother units" throughout
the country, then are distributed down to the individual villages as day-old chicks.
Kuroilers have become popular in rural areas of India, including Uttar Pradesh, Jharkhand, West
Bengal, Mizoram,Chhattisgarh, Meghalaya and Uttarakhand. Large numbers of landless or
smallholder farmers –primary women– breed these chickens as a full-time or part-time business.
Kuroilers have also been exported to countries such as Ugandawith success.
The Kuroiler is a hybrid breed of chicken developed in India. Kuroilers are derived from
crossing either coloured broiler males with Rhode Island Red females, or, White Leghorn males
crossed with female Rhode Island Reds. Kuroilers, a dual-purpose breed producing meat and
eggs, can live on a diet of kitchen and agricultural waste, and produce around 250 eggs per year
whereas native Indian hens lay only 40 per year. The meat yield per bird of Kuroilers is also
greater; males weigh approximately 3.5 kg (7.7 lb) and females about 2.5 kg (5.5 lb) whereas the
native male bird weighs 1 kg (2.2 lb) and females 0.9 kg (2.0 lb). Due to its unique genetic
features, the Kuroiler is resistant to diseases. The kuroiler chick is a potential bio-converter of no
cost agricultural, household and natural waste abundant in villages — into human protein food
and substantial incomes for rural households.
POULTRY FARMING
INITIAL INVESTMENT
1000kuroiler= Rs.70000
For lighting, food plates, Water facilities & others= Rs.10000 (1000 kuroilers)
Totally the capital to be invested to start kuroiler farm is Rs. 160000 only.
In case of , purchasing chicks at Rs. 20 ie.) at hatched , the capital required may be discounted to
Rs.110000 only.
SOURCES
For our convenience, we wish to purchase chicks from the source Keggs Farms Pvt ltd
Bangalore. They avail us a chick at Rs.70(1 month after hatched) including transporting charges.
This chick may be around 150 gms. On the other hand, if we wish to purchase chicks at earlier,
ie) before 1 month they avail as at Rs.20 itself. For direct purchasing, the cost required may be
comparatively high, depends upon the transporting, physical care to chicks and vehicles used.
BASIC REQUIREMENTS
SWOT Analysis
Strength:
Weakness:
1. Since of flesh maturity, the kuroilers are to be discharged or renewed before the
attainment of 3 years.
2. In case of layout failure, it may affect the growth of kuroilers. Thereby high safety is
required against snakes, thieves, wild cats etc.
3. Complex cleaning process.
4. Tedious process on availing of foods, water, ventilation and lighting.
Opportunity:
Threats:
Cocks can be grown up to maximum of 12 kg, if we takes special care towards its
growth. The Kuroiler chickens offer a significant improvement in virtually all areas of breeding.
While indigenous chickens lay just 30-40 eggs per year, the Kuroilers can easily produce five
times that number or around 250-300. Kuroilers also grow to about double the body weight of
their native counterparts, providing much more edible meat.
Eggs:
A healthy kuroiler hen can lay eggs at the rate of 250-300 eggs per year. Each egg can be
sold at the rate of Rs.8 to the retailer. Thereby we can gain Rs2050 by a hen per year.
Manure
We can also get benefits by selling the wastes obtained by kuroilers once in 6 months.
AN ENTIRE VIEW
The sum of money an entrepreneur receives for selling his output commodity before
deducting the costs incurred for producing that commodity.
Net Profit:
The sum of money left when all costs of production are deducted from the gross income.
Return to us:
Net profit divided by total number of person-days we used to produce the chicken.
Initial Investment = Rs 1,60,000 (for 1000 Chicks with their growing requirements)
KUROILERS SALES:
1 Kg = Rs130/-(in TN)
By Eggs:
There by we came to a conclusion that, this is the best time to start kuroilers farms in
Kanya Kumari District. As predicted earlier, any other business requires the help from net of
Peoples, Vehicles, risky involvement, best management etc. In broader sense, any business
commencement requires approval from Govt., Corporate and Food Departments for licensing
process and other formalities. But for this kuroilers farm it is not needed, since this is only the
extent to ordinary domestic hen growing with a least investment process.
