(N/A) Poultry birds are highly efficient converters of agricultural by-products and low-quality fibrous wastes, which are otherwise unfit for human consumption, into high-quality animal protein in the form of meat and eggs.
In addition to providing protein-rich food, poultry farming also yields valuable by-products such as feathers and nutrient-rich manure, which is used as organic fertilizer for crops.
Therefore, the statement highlights the economic and nutritional significance of poultry farming in India, as it utilizes waste materials to produce essential human food.
