Abstract

This study was conducted in five tribal adopted villages viz. Mollabelia, Nischintapur, Basantapur, Brahmapur and Panpur of the Nadia district of West Bengal during January, 2011 to December, 2012 where a front line demonstration on Vanaraja poultry birds was proposed with two specific objectives, viz., (i) to study the demographic profile of the tribal poultry farmers and (ii) to study the housing and feeding systems followed by the farmers for keeping poultry under village conditions for socio-economic development of Scheduled Tribes (ST) community. Women members of farmers’ family played a major role (72%) in the rearing of poultry. Scavenging with local feed/kitchen waste was found to be 25.33% and concentrates feeds was found to be 9.33%. Pond water as the source of water for poultry was found to be very common (60%) and in only 12% cases farmers used well water and 28% tube well water.
