Abstract: Excerpts from the report Introduction: Everyone in the poultry industry may be proud of the record this industry has made in reducing costs and in pioneering in structural innovations.

The current problems of the poultry industry result mainly from internal stresses resulting from rapid change. In this chapter, we shall first describe the major commodity segments of the industry. Second, we shall enumerate some of the major changes which have taken place in evolving the present industry. Third, we shall discuss some of the problems faced by the industry.
