‘Ghanaian farmers are impressed by the growth, feed efficiency and adaptability of the Kuroiler and Hubbard bird strains implemented by the project and hope that this will be the same with egg production.’ Dr Richard Osei R. Osei-Amponsah of University of Ghana on lessons from the TPGS project

'With the #TPGS project, we hope to improve smallholder chicken farmers’ livelihoods by making available high producing farmer-preferred chicken genotypes.' - Chhay Ty, LDC, Cambodia

‘Integrating poultry production with nutrition-sensitive interventions enhances the nutritional status of women and children.’ - ILRI’s Kumlachew Geremew, TPGS human nutritionist

‘Poultry companies should encourage smallholder farmer-led associations that can provide support and training for the farmers. They need to lower the price of poultry products by finding alternative feeds such as the black soldier fly insect.’ - Ezra Prescot of Hamara Farmer

Africa is ready for training centres that provide hands on training in managing poultry as an enterprise. Some much needed skills are marketing, bird rearing, breeding & business management #TPGS ILRI.org

Last week the Tropical Poultry Genetic Solutions #TPGS program's partners came together to exchange knowledge and experiences as we work towards enhancing the effectiveness of complementary chicken-based interventions ILRI.org

Very grateful for my #TPGS team, ILRI.org and Cambodia partners at #NAHPRI. The past few days have been spent discussing and finalizing the proposed indegenous #chicken breed improvement program agreement ahead of the program launch in October

An indigenous chicken breed improvement program will begin in Cambodia in October this year. ILRI’S Tropical Poultry Genetic Solutions (TPGS) project members met with their partners in Tram Tak district and NAHPRI HQ in Phnom Penh to finalize the proposed agreement.

#MOLS officially launched the chicken meat frying business in Adama City. The project aims to boost street chicken meat consumption in three more cities in Ethiopia: Addis Ababa, Bahir Dar, & Hawassa. ILRI.org #TPGS CGIAR

In collaboration with #MOLS ILRI.org is working to promote chicken consumption rate in Ethiopia. Ethiopia faces low consumption of chicken products, with only 57 eggs and 2.85 kg of chicken meat consumed per person yearly. CGIAR

The newly launched Chicken Meat Frying Business is a perfect addition to the Yelemat Tirufat initiative. The initiative strives for food self-sufficiency, job creation, and enhanced productivity in dairy, honey, eggs, and chicken meat production. ILRI.org CGIAR #MOLS

'The chicken & chicken product consumption increase will attract more investment, jobs, & increase production & productivity. Eating poultry meat & eggs is eating for health, not for hunger.' Tadelle Dessie ILRI.org #TPGS speaking at the launching event of street chicken frying business

#TPGS program of ILRI.org is implementing Home Grown School Feeding at selected schools in Ethiopia, Tanzania, and Kenya to improve nutritional outcomes on school-age children by introducing one egg per child per day. CGIAR Tadelle Dessie #SchoolFeeding

The eggs for #HGSF are produced at a model poultry farm built in each of the schools. The number of hens at each school will be at least twice the number of eggs required daily. ILRI.org CGIAR Tadelle Dessie #SchoolFeeding

The #HGSF at Murancho-Qutala is being implemented as a pilot project for South Ethiopia and Central Ethiopia regions. ILRI.org CGIAR Tadelle Dessie #SchoolFeeding

#TPGS addresses the nutritional challenges faced by school children in Kenya, Ethiopia, & Tanzania by implementing a model of chicken houses in the intervention group to integrate chicken consumption into the #SchoolFeeding program. ILRI.org CGIAR Tadelle Dessie ilri.org/research/proje…
