3. *Reduced disease transmission*: AI eliminates the risk of disease transmission through natural mating.
4. *Better breeding control*: AI enables farmers to control the breeding process, reducing the risk of unwanted breedings.
5. *Cost-effective*: AI can be more cost-effective than maintaining a bull for natural mating.

START A UNIQUE POULTRY BUSINESS

Did you know that Guinea fowl farming is more profitable .Below are the reasons:

1)The mortality rate in Guinea fowls is 0.43%

2) Guinea fowls are disease resistant because their immune system is thrice stronger than indigenous chickens hence cutting vaccination and medical expenses.

3) Guinea fowls in their nature lay eggs 100-150 eggs but under good nutrition and management they can reach up to 200
4). Guinea fowls are marketable just like any other indigenous chicken
