The progress of Poultry Breeding and Production, in every part of the world, during the last half century, has been truly phenomenal. Poultry Breeding was, indeed, practiced on more or less systematic lines even before the Christian era, but as a rather negligible branch of food production. Its importance to-day is world-wide, either as husbandry in connection with agriculture, or on a specialist basis.
