I am Elizabeth A. Odero, a woman in Agribusiness residing in Kisumu City, dealing in poultry rearing. Am married and a mother of three (3), One girl 23, boy 22 and a last boy who is 12 years old. I was born in Siaya county, Bondo. l am a first born in a family of eight, comprising of four girls and four boys. I grew up in Nairobi where l begun my schooling at Dr. Livingston Primary and Arya Girls' Secondary school. I later did a secretarial course at Reeswood Secretarial College. Managed to work in an advocates firm before moving back to Kisumu to continue the same. I also worked with Kemri/CDC under HIV/AlDS programs in Siaya and Kisumu counties. I later ventured into business for many years now, selling second hand household stuff and also women and children wear. I went back and did a certificate & Diploma in Guidance & Counseling at University Of Nairobi. Later did a degree in Theology too. My father passed on in 2003 and is now survived by my mother and seven siblings. I believe that life offers all of us opportunities to be better and grow and that anything that starts small has ability to grow. I believe in being a channel for others too and anything l begin is not as individual but touches other lives as well. I am here because l know l can move my business to greater heights, determination, resilience, timelines and marketing will help me achieve my goal of being one of the sort after poultry farms. Poultry has money and is a ready market that needs the best and quality birds.
Business Proposal: Poultry Farming Focused on High Demand for Eggs
This outlines the operations of a poultry farm with 50 laying hens & 50 8 weeks old. l focus on egg production for individuals, hotels etc. I manage to collect between 50 eggs daily. We also manage feeding costs, waste disposal, and revenue generation.
Number of Layers: 50 chickens and 50 growers
Eggs per Day: 50 eggs
Price per Egg 15 (Kshs) for wholesale and 20 for retail
Eggs Collected per Month 50× 30 days = 1500 eggs/month
Yearly 1500 × 12 months =18000 eggs
Every month this is what we sell
1500x15=22500
Every year l.manage to make this
22500x12=270000
How much feeds is consumed by the birds
Chicken Mash they take 30 kg per month that's two and a half per day.
Grower Mash take 30 kg per month ie two and half per day
Layer Mash 30 kg per month at 4kgs daily
Feed cost for 70 kgs bag at 3800
##### Monthly Feed Consumption & Cost:
a) Chicken Mash**:
30 kg/month × 3800/= 114,000/= monthly
b) Grower Mash
30 kg/month × 3,800/kg = 114,000/per month
c) Layer Mash**:
30 kg/month × 3,800/kg = 114,000/month
•l sell the hens at 900/- for the female and 1000/- for the cockerels.
I am still growing and thereby continuing to learn more from this business as l.also continue with my second hand business of selling household goods and linen trousers for ladies.
I plan to increase the birds to 200 and increase the egg production due to high demands.
In conclusion l would say every business has teething problem but l know l will be able to pass every hurdles and hitches as l go on.
Since this will be my first funding, l will buy 1 day old chicks @100 each then buy a sack of feeds. I will then resell them at 4 weeks old @290 each and that way by the eighth week l will be able to do that twice.
