They can be classified as conventional feed stuffs.
Conventional poultry rations usually include many cereals like maize, rice, wheat, oat, barley; and a few cereal byproducts such as wheat-bran or rice polish, animal and vegetable protein sources like fish-meal, meat-meal, soybean-oil-meal, groundnut-cake, etc.
-
To find the need of poultry required nutrition from the cereals, crops which are easily cultivated in almost all continents.
– cereals, crops difficult to produce everywhere in the world should be replaced with the synthetic production of these of ingredients present only in these crops

main food sources are maize,soya..we can sustain by improve maize yield per hectare
-
Soybean meal with alternative protein sources, such as insect larvae and other plant-based ingredients,

I’d like to point out two sustainable feed sources (SFS) and nutrition strategies (NS) for poultry:
SFS
1. Use of locally produced/sourced ingredients – this will reduce transportation emissions and support local economy
2. Use of crop residues and byproducts – some agricultural wastes can be utilised as feed ingredients
Nutrition Strategies
1. Precision feeding – tailoring feeding to specific needs of birds will reduce wastage
2. Enzyme supplementation – enzymes that aid digestion will improve nutrient availability and utilisation.
