As the growth of agriculture approaching a plateau, farmers are slowly diverting on poultry and fish production for their sustenance. Thus, poultry and fish are important subsectors of agriculture globally.

The book entitled ?Poultry, Egg and Fish Processing Technology? will be an important resource providing wealth of information in production, processing, marketing and quality control of poultry and fish products.
