Abstract
A study was conducted to find out the constraints in backyard poultry farming in five randomly selected villages of Thiruvannamalai district of Tamil Nadu. The information provided by farmers was analyzed by Rank Based Quotient (RBQ) method.

The non-disease issues should also be taken into consideration while formulating programmes targeting backyard poultry and necessary remedial measures be taken to address these problems.
