Many entrepreneurs want to engage in such a branch of the economy as meat poultry, but everyone knows that achieving a good financial result is not so easy. This article will describe some features of the poultry business that can be used to improve the efficiency of the economy.

Readers are invited to pay attention to the following aspects:

Choose a region

Choosing a place is one of the key aspects of the profitability of any business and the production of poultry meat is no exception.

Below are a comparison of the selling prices for chicken meat in various federal districts:

CFD - 88,500 Rubles / t

SFD - 82 270 rubles per ton

DFO - 88,670 rubles per ton

SFD - 91 125 rubles per ton

UFD - 88 500 rubles per ton

SKFO - 100 000 rubles per ton

PFD - 84 220 rubles per ton

NWFD - 85 000 rubles per ton

As can be seen from the data given, the difference in the minimum and maximum prices is 17.7%. Therefore, in case of planning a large project, it is better to locate the enterprise in such a way as to orient itself to sales regions with large prices, this will allow increasing the company's revenue and profitability of production.

For small and medium-sized businesses, it is not so much the choice of the region that matters, as the choice of a specific area within the region, Small enterprises supply products to the market of only one or several neighboring areas. So, wanting to open a poultry farm in the Far Eastern Federal District and having the opportunity to choose between the neighboring republics of Sakha and the Amur Region, preference should be given first, The average consumer price for chicken products in the Republic of Sakha in July 2013 is 194 rubles / kg, and in the Amur region only 136 rubles / kg, ie. The difference in revenue may be 44%.

Selection of the type of meat produced

Currently, the main type of poultry meat consumed in Russia is chicken meat. In recent years , turkey meat has become increasingly popular , in the consumption structure it has already begun to occupy a notable share of 2%. Many large enterprises open additional workshops for introducing this type of product into their assortment. The market is now more than promising, the growth rates are high, and prices are higher than the world average. However, this situation will last no more than 5 years. After all the turkey projects are implemented, the price will inevitably start to decline and surviving the highly competitive environment will become increasingly difficult. Entrepreneurs wishing to open a highly profitable poultry farm, it makes sense to pay attention to other species of poultry, almost not represented in the Russian market (to which 5 years ago the popular turkey also belonged): duck, guinea fowl, quail. Specializing in such types of goods, you can take a free niche and expect high growth rates of the market in the short term.

Structure of the complex

The farm complex can include the following buildings (workshops):

• Incubator
• Shop for growing (main shop)
• Slaughter and Cutting Shop
• The storage of products
• Deep processing shop
• Compound feed plant
• Transport shop

The obligatory parts of any production of poultry meat are the plant for growing and the shop for storage of products. The remaining parts, although not mandatory, but can make a significant contribution to the profitability of the project. So the deep processing shop (production of sausage, pelmeni and other semi-finished products) and the slaughter and cutting shop increase the profitability of the poultry farm by an average of 30% each.

In the structure of costs for the production of poultry meat, the main share is taken by the cost of feed, their share is 70%. At the same time, according to statistics, the level of supply with feed is only 80% in Russia, and the share of quality feed is even lower. Creation of own feed mill will solve several important tasks: increase profitability level due to lower feed costs, reduce risks associated with dependence on suppliers, will improve the quality of products by selecting the recipe for the largest set of weight and quality of meat.

Having your own incubator is also able to greatly affect the business: relieve dependence on suppliers, enable quality control, lead to increased profitability of the business.

Based on all of the above, we can conclude that the more stages of production includes the complex, the higher the economic efficiency of the enterprise. Therefore, all major poultry meat production in the country are full-cycle enterprises.
