SWOT ANALYSIS
The Poultry farm business is a growing business that continues to grow as
the population grows. People are conscious of what they now eat, and
chickens and the eggs they lay are highly nutritious.
Poultry farmers are often affected by diseases where there is poor handling
of the birds, these diseases (Salmonella) can wipe out all the birds if not
handled and reported properly and quickly.
The need to conduct a SWOT analysis is essential.
The SWOT analysis that needs to be conducted involves the following:
Strength: Bio security measure will be put in place to prevent disease
outbreak. Foot bath for visitors and workers will be put in place at the
entrances. Every vehicle coming into the facility will also pass through a
bath and get sprayed. All quality control standards will be adhered to
strictly so as to produce a world class standard. Animals and materials will
be kept away from the poultry pens. Bio security training will be
mandatory given to attendants and other staff.
Weakness: Pilfering shrinkages, indulgence,
misappropriation are few of the several epidemic that
constantly plaque poultry in Nigeria. Workers steal eggs,
birds, feed, money and even drugs if they are not properly
monitored. Sales agents and drivers could sell at different
prices and report differently. Effective management of this
ends are critical factor.
Opportunities : We have perfected our sale and marketing
strategies first by networking with agriculture merchants and
businesses that rely on daily supply of chicken and eggs from
the poultry farms and egg production industry that are likely to
become our customers.
Threat: Watering and water source is of great importance,
Foul water source or water getting contaminated in poultry
house signifies that the farm will fail. Water should be
managed to ensure that clear and clean water is available for
bird at labium.
