Synopsis (short abstract) This monitoring notebook is designed to help farmers manage their poultry farm by recording the main activities carried out, costs and income. Filling it in every day will take little time and will allow them to evaluate the progress of your enterprise, its profitability, and will help them to make better decisions about the management of your flock. A few examples are provided in the booklet. The Sustainable Wildlife Management (SWM) Programme is an initiative of the Organization of the African, Caribbean and Pacific States (OACPS) funded by the European Union (EU) and co-financed by the French Facility for Global Environment (FFEM) and the French Development Agency (AFD). This seven-year programme (2017-2024) is being implemented in 15 OACPS member countries by a consortium of partners including the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the Centre for International Cooperation in Agricultural Research for Development (CIRAD), the Centre for International Forestry Research (CIFOR) and the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS).

    Poultry Farmer Field Schools in Lebanon 2016

    The large influx of Syrian refugees into Lebanon (an estimated 1.5 million) constitutes a major challenge across all sectors. The impact on the agriculture sector is particularly worrying, as this is the main source of income and livelihoods for a large proportion of the population – notably for the poorest and most vulnerable hosting communities in rural areas. The poultry subsector represents a major economic activity, employing at least 30 000 people. Through the farmer field school (FFS) approach, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), with the financial support of the United Kingdom, developed semi-intensive egg production for communities hosting Syrian refugees.

    A growing number of poultry farmer field schools (FFS) are being implemented in developing countries by a wide range of actors. Experience over the past two decades has shown that good-quality facilitation and learning activities are key to the success and long-term sustainability of poultry FFS. This manual provides practical information and activities that help facilitators establish and implement good-quality FFS. It focuses on working with women and men poultry producers to sustainably enhance production, productivity and marketing in any family poultry production system, ranging from extensive to small-scale intensified, in line with producers’ aspirations and local conditions. The first module of the manual covers poultry FFS establishment and learning activities, and the second provides “need-to-know” information on poultry production and health and FFS facilitation.
