Poultry business has been known to be highly profitable ventures. The margins between profits and losses are very slim given that they require strict management regimes. Meat poultry production also known as broilers takes 42 days to normally complete production.

The big puzzle though has always been the ideal markup price and profit margin for a poultry production operation.

Industry standards suggest that a profit margin of 15% is ideal. I reckon that a profit margin of 20% is ideal for a business that takes between 35 to 42 days to see yields.

What do you think should be the profit margins for a broiler production of 42 day cycle before sales.
