A new research study published in the journal Animal (24 June 2020) investigated early intensification in small-scale commercial chicken farms in Kenya to better understand the farming systems and the constraints that small-scale poultry farmers face. The findings of the study will be useful to design interventions to support small-scale poultry farmers.
