POULTRY PRODUCTION
- Poultry production includes chicken, duck, chicken egg and duck egg production.

- Total poultry production went down in 2019 as compared to 2018 (Figure 1) which was largely attributed to the decrease in broiler production due to shifting to layer farm operation of two large broiler farms in Ifugao.
