Abstract
A study was
conducted in Thrissur taluk of Thrissur district to understand
the problems perceived by the farmwomen in poultry farming. A
random sample of 120 farm women were selected from the two
randomly selected blocks of Thrissur taluk. Inadequate knowledge
of low cost scientific cage construction, low hatchability of
eggs in summer, problems of predators, losses due to bacterial
and viral diseases and financial difficulties were the problems
perceived as most serious by the farmwomen.
