Pune, 14th November 2022: Observing the birthday of Padmashri Dr B.V.Rao the pioneer of the Indian Poultry industry, the Poultry Farmers and Breeders Association (PFBA) is celebrating ‘National Chicken Day’ on the 16th of November.
As a part of activities celebrating the platinum jubilee of Indian independence and the ‘National Chicken Day,’ the association is organizing a campaign from 16th to 18th November. On these three days, the chicken will be sold at lower rates in 105 shops in Pune city and Maharashtra.
C. Vasathkumar, president of PF & BA told the press. Dr Vijay Tijare, Dr Shrilankeshwar Waghole, and Dr Ajay Deshpande were present at this press conference.
Vasanthkumar said, “This campaign is aimed towards public awareness. PF&BA, Maharashtra, Karnataka Poultry Farmers Breeders Association, Civbha and West Bengal Poultry Federation are organizing various programs during this campaign. It includes chicken distribution, awareness programs, lectures, demos, and training.”
He said, “PF&BA has been striving hard for the welfare of poultry breeders and farmers for two decades. We have more than 100 members. These members collectively contribute four crores of broiler per month. The association also represents the members in state and central governments.”
The association is thinking of organizing such programs periodically with a probable plan to celebrate chicken week, he added.
Few of the chicken shop owners will be felicitated for their remarkable service of selling broilers to the consumer at a reasonable price all the time and increasing chicken consumption, told Mr.C.Vasanthkumar.
