INTRODUCTION

Chicken broiler productions are the most progressive animal enterprises in the

Philippines today. The growth of poultry industry in the Philippines has been

impressive. As of 01 April 2021, the total chicken inventory in the country was

estimated at 179.13 million birds. This was 0.6 percent higher than the previous

year’s same period count of 178.08 million birds. Broiler chicken and layer chicken

inventory increased by 1.1 percent and 5.6 percent, respectively. On the other hand,

stocks of native/improved chicken decreased by -2.2 percent. Among the regions,

Central Luzon reported the highest total chicken inventory with 26.98 million birds.

This was followed by CALABARZON with 24.84 million birds and Western Visayas

with 20.73 million birds. These three regions accounted for 40.6 percent of the total

chicken inventory in the country. (Philippine Statistic Office 2021)

In the Philippines, agriculture contributes about 8.6% of the country’s Gross

Domestic Product (GDP). Agricultural products are high volume, low value and highly

perishable. These products are generally wasted during the process of food

distribution in the supply chain. Major contributors to huge losses are the inherent

nature of these produce, the tropical setting of the country, lack of post-harvest

infrastructure and facilities, the way of handling and the multi-layered distribution

system. In the Philippines, substantial post-harvest losses of up to 50% was recorded

from the initial harvesting, grading, packaging and transportation from field to storage

and distribution to the consumers. (Lotis E. Mopera)

Many people know that vegetable trimmings from the market is already a

garbage but as an agricultural entrepreneur we see an opportunity, these vegetable

trimming can reduce the expenses of chicken farmers by fermenting and using it as

water additives for broiler chicken.

Fermented plant juice the primary elements that FPJ can provide are nitrogen

and some micro-nutrients like calcium, molybdenum, manganese, iron and carbon.

The juice also contains rich microorganisms which give strength to animals. 

Fermented extract of the saps and chlorophylls of specific types of plants. It is

enzymatically rich and full of lactic acid producing bacteria and yeast that can help to

animal growth (a probiotic). Vegetables are important sources of many nutrients,

including potassium, folate, vitamin A, and vitamin C.

Antibiotic resistance in food animals and antibiotic residues in meat products

are two of the most pressing issues in meat production globally. Antibiotics are used to

enhance growth and feed efficiency and are highly effective for maintaining flock

health and reducing mortality (Yildirim et al 2013). The ban of antibiotic use and the

threat of emerging pathogens pose significant challenges for the poultry industry, and

poultry growers may welcome fermented plant products as natural substitutes to

antibiotics. The issue even more complicates upon the persuasive public awareness

on the effects of antibiotics on human health. (WHO 2005)

Fermentation is the metabolic processes in which carbohydrates as well as

some non-digestible are partially oxidized with the release of the energy in the

absence of any external electron acceptors. In broad terms, fermentation involves the
 43

use of microorganisms to carry out enzyme-catalyzed transformations of organic

matter contributing to the development of characteristic properties in taste, aroma,

texture, visual appearance, shelf life and safety (Holzapfel 2002).

The use of fermented vegetable trimmings will benefit the broiler chicken. FPJ

is an efficient source of vitamins and probiotics for broiler chickens. The essential

components of FPJ, found that the liquid contains elements that are essential for

encouraging the growth of chickens. (Reynaldo Andres 2017)

TECHNICAL ASPECT

A. Preparation and Presentation of the Project Proposal

In the process of the preparation of the project proposal, the student

entrepreneur thought of a small business which needed relatively an amount of

Php.14, 461.00 for the capital. The student entrepreneur choose broiler

production for the reason of fast return of investment, low cost production, rapid

growth results. The preparation of the student entrepreneur was renting a broiler

house, brooding management, the procurement of the stocks, feeds, cleaning

and disinfecting the shed and the water trough, feeding though, water, electricity

supply, and the health management of the Broiler Chicken.

B. Implementation of the Project

The micro project started on March 2021 and ended on April 2021. It

was conducted in order for the student entrepreneur to apply the

knowledge and skills he acquired from his APT and OJT subjects.

C. Production System

The Production that will be system applied will be the all-in all-out

Operation. This type of has a quick return of investment because broiler chicken

will be marketed for early as 35 days feeding period.

 45

D. Project Size

The Student Entrepreneur raised one hundred (100) heads of broiler

chicken for 35 days. For the fifty heads (50) he used treatment no.1 which is

using Vetracin in drinking water, whereas, the other fifty (50) heads of broiler

chicken used the treatment no.2 which is using FPJ as water additives.

.
 46

E. Project location

The micro project will be located at Barangay Palasan, Sta Cruz, Laguna. It is

located is 300/meters away from the student entrepreneur’s house. It is also

accessible to road networks for transportation. There is also available water and

electric supply in the area.

F. Production Process

The Production Process is the series of activities involved in raising broiler

chicken which includes selection of the stock, housing management, feeding

management, record keeping, health management and marketing.

A. Cleaning and Disinfecting the Shed

Maintaining the good health of the broiler chicken from day 1 until

marketing is very important to enhance their growth. Basic health program was

implemented by the student entrepreneur to the broiler chicken to keep the

broiler chicken healthy and make the business profitable.

To make the broiler house germ-free, the student entrepreneur cleaned

and disinfected the broiler house using disinfectant mix in water before the

arrival of the stock. Providing the broiler chicken with fresh and clean drinking

water and were part of the basic health program. Since the student entrepreneur

was able to keep the house and surrounding clean and germ-free, no sign of

illness was observed from the broiler but there was Nine (9) mortality.

B. Procurement of Stock

Selection or choosing of the stock to be raised is the first important aspect

involve in raising animals, it was the of selection animals with desirable

characteristic which means the good characteristics of the broiler can be seen on

their physical appearance which the student entrepreneur used as her basis in

selecting the stock.

B1. Selection of stock

The stocks were healthy at the time of arrival and the chicks were of the

same size with an average weight of 50 grams. No symptoms of disease like

diarrhea were observed by the student entrepreneur from the day-old chicks.

They were active and no symptoms of physical abnormalities were observed.

B2. Purchased of stock

The one hundred (100) straight run chicks were purchased from San

Pablo. Nutriva hatchery through an agent at a price of Php. 35.00 per head, t he

day-old chicks were delivered to the house of the student entrepreneur on

March 2, 2019 at around 9:30 pm. According to the agent, he transported it at

night in order to avoid stress.

C. Procurement of Feeds
The feed was purchased from Ilidan’s feed supply in Patimbao ,Sta, Cruz,

Sta. Cruz, Laguna. The following were the actual feed cost per bag of the

different types of feeds:

1. Chick booster – Php. 1525

2. Broiler starter – Php. 1455

3. Broiler finisher – Php. 1400

D. Feeding management

Feeding is the process of giving food to the broiler chicken that is essential

for their growth and survival.

Three types of feeds that were given in each growing period. First, chick

booster containing 21.5 % CP, was given from day old up to the 14th day of

brooding period. It was followed by starter feeds containing 19.5 % CP, for the

growing period of the chicken for another 14 days. And lastly, broiler finisher

contains 18.0 % CP was fed for the remaining 7 days. These types of feeds

were given to the broiler chicken in mash form.

Broiler starter 11 Mar. 16 to Mar. 26

Broiler finisher 7 Mar. 27 to Apr. 2

The system of feeding that the student entrepreneur implemented was the

Ad-libitum system, wherein the feeds were made available to the broiler chicken

at all times by refilling the self-feeder and the long feeding trough every time it

was about to be empty. The shifting of the feed from one type to another were

done gradually in order to avoid stress.

 51

E. Health Maintenance and Sanitation

The student entrepreneur maintained the cleanliness and dryness of the brooder

house to prevent contamination of the chicks from parasites and disease. Before

entering the brooder house, we change the slippers use outside. There is a set of

slippers use only inside the brooder house to avoid diseases from outside of the

brooders house.

F. Waste Disposal

The waste produced by broiler chicken goes under the brooders house. After

the broiler chicken sold, the farmers collect the manure and then dry it and use it as

fertilizer for their vegetables.

G. Marketing of the broiler chicken

Marketing was the selling of the live broiler chicken to the contacted buyer

from Sta Cruz Public Market. Selling of the broiler will be done after 35 days of

stocks. The price per kilogram will be based on the price on the prevailing price in the

market.
