Breeding for low maintenance requirements results in birds with robust health, disease resistance, and efficient feed utilization, reducing the need for intensive management practices and input costs.

By selectively breeding for heat tolerance and efficient cooling mechanisms, cross-breeding programs produce breeds capable of thriving in hot climates, ensuring productivity even in adverse environmental conditions.

Dwarf broiler parents optimize space utilization, reduce feed requirements, and maintain high meat yield, making them ideal for efficient commercial production systems.

Cross-breeding programs selectively combine traits from Indian and foreign breeds to enhance fertility rates, maternal instincts, and hatchability, resulting in increased numbers and healthier chicks.

External parasites reside on the skin and cause skin-related ailments, while internal parasites like worms affect the gastrointestinal tract, and flukes specifically target the liver. Each type of parasite poses unique challenges and requires specific management and treatment approaches.
