在大多数发展中国家和不发达国家，土鸡品种在农村经济中发挥着重要作用。它们在农村贫困和边缘化人群的辅助收入方面发挥着重要作用，并为他们提供营养丰富的鸡蛋和肉类供自己消费。土鸡的生产性能可以通过改变饲养方式、饲养方式和更好的健康覆盖来提高。然而，遗传改良可以通过选择和杂交或通过利用选择和杂交来进行。通过选择来改进可能是耗时的，但改进将是永久的。通过杂交改良可能会更快，但研究的目标是生产具有更高生产潜力的本地类型的鸟类。本文论述了土鸡对农村经济的重要性，以及土鸡的改良和提高生产性能的途径。
Indigenous/native breeds of chickens are playing an important role in rural economies in most of the developing and underdeveloped countries. They play a major role for the rural poor and marginalised section of the people with respect to their subsidiary income and also provide them with nutritious chicken egg and meat for their own consumption. Performance of native fowl can be improved by change in husbandry, feeding, and better health cover. However, genetic improvement may be made either through selection and crossbreeding or by utilisation of both selection and crossbreeding. Improvement through selection may be time consuming but the improvement will be permanent. Through crossbreeding improvement may be faster but research has to aim for the production of native-type birds with higher production potential. In the present review efforts have been made to present the importance of native fowl to rural economy and their improvement for higher production performance.
