Village poultry have been raised for thousands of years and the selection pressure present in the village environment has resulted in local breeds that are well adapted to local conditions. Within the livestock sector, village poultry are often the most commonly owned type of livestock and they are more frequently owned than larger livestock species by resource-poor households. This paper discusses the comparative advantages of village and smallholder poultry in poverty alleviation and food-security projects in developing countries.
