Pastured Poultry Packet #1: The Economics of Broiler Chickens
Do you know how much it costs to raise your own meat chickens? There are so many questions and the “devil is in the details”.
This workbook will help you:
determine the cost of raising your first broiler chicken
determine what breed of chicken to raise for meat
ensure you have the proper infrastructure on your farm/homestead
What does it do?
The Pastured Poultry Packet walks you through step by step, penny by penny, how to determine the start-up costs, and operational costs of raising broiler chickens on grass.
If you plan on farming as a business this packet will help you determine viability and set prices for your products. If you are just growing chickens for your family, then this will get you set up and determine your savings by growing your own food.
