摘要:The study was conducted to identify the socioeconomic status, assess costs and returns of broiler farms in Perambalur District of Tamil Nadu state in India. The primary data were collected from 30 respondents through face to face interview during the period between November 2019 and January 2020. The results of the study revealed that most of the respondents were male belonging to old age category. Majority of the respondents were running broiler business as a main occupation and highly depended on institutional sources of finance. Major share of the respondents were spending higher amount to the input. The farmers were spending their amount for purchasing of lights, roof material, drinker, feeder etc. Government should initiate various schemes for the upliftment of poultry sector. Low cost vaccine and medicines may be provided by the government to the growers which will minimize the variable cost. If all the above suggestions are implemented by the concerned authorities, the broiler farming will move in the right direction and the farmers will get good income.
