SUMMARY
This is a
poultry project specifically designed for eggs production. It is planned to
start with 2000 layer birds. The Total project cost for the poultry
project alone shall be ₦6,390,000
or ($39,444.44) broken down as; ₦2,660,000
or ($16,419.75) for construction, ₦3,730,000 or ($23,024.69) for purchase of the layers, poultry feeds (for four
months), vaccines and drugs and other poultry accessories for 18 months. For
capacity building, water and electric installation, administrative costs and labor
cost for 18 months. It is assumed that only 80% production shall be realized,
which means 21600 trays of eggs
shall be realized per month for 12
months on average.(60 trays per
month X 30days X 12 months =21600 trays. The primary customers for the eggs shall be prominent
egg traders within Ilorin and possibility
nearest states to Ilorin
To
increase the sustainability of Unique
Poultry Farm enabling it to continuously support its mission, helping to
improve the social economic welfare and vulnerability of the Orphans and
Vulnerable Children (OVC) and the Youth in Nigeria.
In order to realize the above results, the following main activities
must be implemented:
1. Contract the services of a builder to
construct a chicken house
2. Select and train OVC, especially those out of
school, to support the project
3. Procure and rear chickens to lay eggs to be
sold for consumption
4. Continuously monitor and evaluate activities
to ensure objectives are met
If these
activities are implemented, it will create a great impact in the lives of the
project beneficiaries. In the first place, the the project will create
employment for at least 50 youngsters currently not employed in any productive
venture in the future, when the grow to it full potential. This employment will give them an alternative
way to generate income, decreasing their dependence on their parents, and
thereby decreasing their risk of committing crimes.
In spite of
these goals, Unique
Poultry Farm lacks the financial resources necessary to realize
this project. The organization seeks ₦6,390,000
to aid in the start-up of this income generating project.

The problem at
hand is that many cases we find ourselves in financial needs particularly to support
our schooling (M.Tech, PhD and others) and to extend the farm to increase the
productions, in order to start generating enough income to manage the activities
and the youths. In addition, some of the youth out school are unemployed in
productive venture so as to support themselves.
We consultatively came up with the poultry project as income
generating project as sources of income to our lives and furthermore, we seek to provide income generation projects for the
youth, giving them an alternate way to support themselves and their dependents.

to all orphans and youth in the country.

- At the end of the second year of their productions(its remaining 5months), the project will earn ₦1,485,000 or $9,166.67 (₦5,940,000 + ₦1,485,000 = ₦7,425,000 or $45,833.33) from the sale of eggs , enabling it to sustain itself and see a profit

- MANAGEMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROJECT
AGENCY CAPACITY:
The organization
has the capacity to run the proposed project effectively. In the first place,
it has some experience in poultry keeping, and it can collaborate with the
district agricultural officers to conduct more training to its staff so that
they gain more skills and knowledge on how to rear chickens on a large scale.
See below (starting
from page11 to the last page, our poultry farm which is named Unique Poultry Farm.
Institutional framework and linkages
In the first place, Gbemisola
Feed Mills and B and G Feed Mills at Ilorin
Implementation
The project will
be executed by the organization. However, it will set up a separate project
committee which will be responsible for the day to day coordination and
implementation of the project activities. It will also be responsible for
planning, supervising, monitoring and reviewing all project activities.
Implementation
of the project activities will call for close collaboration with a wide range
of partners such as potential buyers of poultry products, sellers of animal feeds,
District agricultural department, and the project funders.
This will enhance the opportunities for the
realization of the broad goals and objectives of this project.
Monitoring and evaluation
General
Monitoring and evaluation will be an on going activity throughout the project
life. Monitoring will be routinely done
through meetings monthly reports, check lists, and support supervision visits.
These reports shall indicate the constraints and challenges in the
implementations and necessary adjustments that had been taken. Progress
evaluation will be done through use of monthly quarterly reports, steering committee
meetings, annual report, registry records, work pans indicating planned and
accomplished activities, functional accountability for project resources
including equipment, facilities, assets and activities.
Progress
monitoring and evaluation will help the project team to assess the extent to
which implementation is meeting the set objectives. This will enable the project team to revisit
the objectives and priorities and to find ways and means of improving the
performance and better resource used.
Financial Management of the project.
Finances
accruing to this project will be entered into the proper books of accounts when
received. A special Account in the name of the project will be opened to cater
for only project funds. To ensure effective control, management and monitoring
of project funds, no single signatory will be allowed to access project funds,
and the signatories of this account will be three. Under the consent of the
three and approval of the committee funds will be withdrawn from the bank and
utilized for the intended purpose.
Books of
accounts will be audited regularly through external auditors. After auditing
the project accounts, the auditors will submit an audit report, which will
satisfy the donors and the stakeholders that correct and proper books of
accounts have been be maintained.
There will be
the project committee which exercises budgetary control over project finances.
This will be exercised through the comparison of expenses estimated in the
budget with actual expenses incurred during the period.
Project
Profit Projection
It is assumed that only 80% production shall be realised, which means 1800 trays of eggs shall be realized per month for 12 months. That
is to say 60 trays X 30 days X 12 Months = 21600 trays
of eggs in one year. A tray of egg goes at ₦550 or $3.40. This means a gross revenue of ₦11,880,000
or $73,333.33 shall be realized from the sale of eggs.
The
off layers at the end of production shall be sold at ₦800 or $4.94 each,
raising additional revenue ₦1,600,000 or
$9,876.54. This implies that total gross revenue of ₦13,480,000 or $83,209.88 shall be realized at the end of the production cycle in 18 months, and this
implies a net profit of ₦8,122,500 or
$50,138.89 shall be made at the end
of 18 Months.
Project sustainanbility
In the initial
stage, the project will be sustained by donor funds. However, in the long run
the project will finance itself. Part of
the funds will be used to execute another poultry farm at different state while
another percentage will be re-invested in the poultry business to expand the
project, hence increasing sales and profits.
Through
the capacity building workshops, the project staff will be empowered with some
skills in treatment of layer birds and have appropriate knowledge feeds
rational.
