本文件对发展中国家家禽部门的发展以及小规模家庭家禽生产的作用作了全球性的概述。提出了发展家禽作为农村发展工具的主要倡议及其理由。讨论了小规模家禽生产未来面临的制约因素，鉴于目前亚洲爆发高致病性禽流感，特别侧重于家禽疾病。确定了迫切需要采取干预措施和小规模家禽有可能产生重大影响的地理“热点”。最后，本文强调，在指导家禽业发展的政策和战略中，需要有更长远和更广泛的观点。
The paper presents a global overview of the development of the poultry sector and of the role of small-scale, family-based poultry production in developing countries. Major initiatives undertaken to develop poultry as a tool for rural development and their rationale are presented. The constraints facing the future of small-scale poultry production are discussed, with a particular focus on poultry disease given the current outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza in Asia. Geographical ' hotspots ' are identified where interventions are urgently required and where small-scale poultry has the potential to make a substantial impact. Finally, the paper stresses the need for more long-term and wider perspectives in the policies and strategies guiding the development of the poultry sector.
