Abstract

Backyard poultry farming (BYPF) is an important small enterprise to meet the domestic and socio-cultural needs of the people. Its adoption, however, is limited due to some operational constraints especially among resource-poor tribal women who opted for it. This study was conducted to record these constraints as confronted by tribal women in Mandla district of Madhya Pradesh. Major constraints identified in this exercise were: high incidence of poultry diseases, lack of suitable germ-plasm, attack of predators, low productivity, lack of knowledge, shortage of space, and complaints raised by neighbours.
