Abstract

The Asian Chicken Genetic Gains Project is a joint effort that is improving village chicken farming in Vietnam and Southeast Asia. The four-year (2021-2025) ILRI and National Institute of Animal Sciences (NIAS) and other stakeholders' initiative has been working with farmers in Hoa Binh, Ha Nam and Quang Binh to improve access to improved chicken breeds such as Sassoli, Red and Tetra H, and to enhance the productivity of traditional chicken breeds.
