Assessment of Broiler Production; Processing and Marketing Practices in Ethiopia: Identifying the Root Causes for Poultry Products Importation and Way Forward

Therefore, this research work is initiated to assess the status of broiler production and processing practices in Ethiopia so as to identify major causes of poultry products importations and propose the way forward.
