Smallholder poultry (SHP) are kept in scavenging, small scale, free-range and backyard systems which depend for feed and nutrition on the scavengeable feed resource base (SFRB). The quantity and quality of SFRB varies with season, altitude, climatic conditions, farming activities and village floc...
