Excerpt from The Poultry and Egg Industry of Leading European Countries As a rule, chickens are not kept separately, but in connection with other agriculture. Poultry is kept on all farms. But it is evident that the importance of keeping poultry is greater for the small than for the large farms, as the former lack other sources of income.

Excerpt from Report on the Poultry Industry in the Netherlands, 1921 The series of Reports on the Poultry Industry in various countries - namely, America, Denmark, Sweden, Belgium, Germany and Wales - which it has been my privilege to issue as a contribution to knowledge upon this branch of food production, involved a study of conditions and developments in the Netherlands where remarkable progress had been made upon exceptional lines. This was almost completed when the great European War broke out in 1914. The effects of that conflict have been very great, and are seen in a considerable decrease in the number of poultry kept and the volume of production, together with an enormous enhancement of values of products. The Report now presented, therefore, refers to the conditions prior to the war period. It has, however, been felt that what is set forth should be given as an indication of methods adopted, from the fact that in this way is indicated how the Poultry Industry was developed in one of the smaller countries, and especially that in the time of restoration the principles recorded are those on which the Poultry Industry in the Netherlands is being rebuilt.
