Poultry hatchery unit

Vanuatu’s PENAMA Province establishes poultry hatchery unit

The new development will support and strengthen the population’s livelihood as they recover from both disasters of the Lonbenben volcano and Tropical Cyclone Harold.

The unit now houses a new chicken egg incubator with a capacity of hatching 528 eggs per hatch, and a brooder house to raise chicks up to table and market size.

VSP Director Fremden Shadrack encouraged poultry producers throughout PENAMA to use this opportunity to rebuild their lives, especially to increase chicken and duck population to meet table and market demand within the province.
