In a poultry unit, the cost of feed is the factor that has the greatest influence on overall costs. Feed is a major expense in poultry farming as it constitutes a significant portion of the operational costs. The quality and quantity of feed greatly impact the growth and development of the birds, and ultimately their productivity. Any fluctuations in the cost of feed, such as price changes or availability, can significantly affect the overall cost of running a poultry unit. Other factors such as transportation, chicks, and medicines also contribute to the overall cost, but the cost of feed typically plays the most significant role in determining the total expenses in a poultry unit.
