To help rebuild the poultry value chain in Hasakah, USAID worked with the community and local authorities to identify the major hurdles in the sector, primarily the need for equipment and the high cost of farm inputs like chicks. USAID then jointly designed activities with relevant stakeholders to help boost the poultry value chain’s productivity and rebuild it—from farm to market. To address farmers’ equipment and farming supply needs, USAID provided key materials, including feeders, water tanks, exhaust fans, thermometers, and generators, to 27 registered poultry farms throughout the governorate. But without chickens to raise, a poultry farm is just a farm, so the team worked with local authorities to establish an egg incubation center to grow and hatch chicks locally.
