Proteins are a group of biological compounds which are present in every live cell, organ and tissue of the body. They are there in the form of enzymes, antibodies, hormones and much more. Meaning 'first' or 'of prime importance' in Greek, proteins participate in every cellular process occurring in the body. Proteins are responsible for the formation, regulation, repair and protection of the body of each organism. It executes a range of functions within living beings including catalysis of enzymes, DNA replication communication and coordination within the cells, molecular transportation from one location to another. There are 20 amino acids considered essential because the body must have all of them in right amounts to function properly. Twelve of these proteins are manufactured in the body but the other eight amino acids must be provided by diet. Foods from animals sources such as milk or eggs often contain all these essential amino acids, while a variety of plant products must be taken together to provide the body and the mind all these necessary proteins. Good healthy sources of proteins are not hard to find for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians. Meat eaters can choose from eggs, chicken, cooked lean meat and fish. Vegetarians can choose from nuts, seeds, soy products like tofu, dairy products and legumes including variety of beans and split peas. Key facts (World Health Organisation) 

Commercial poultry production system with low to minimal biosecurity and birds/products entering live bird markets (e.g. a caged layer farm with birds in open sheds; a farm with poultry spending time outside the shed; a farm producing chickens and waterfowl). Village or backyard production with minimal biosecurity and birds/products consumed locally.

Supply and demand of chicken meat and egg The trend of the last 10 years shows that the production of meat and eggs increased regularly.Production of chicken meat (78.8 % of increase) was however much more important than for eggs(32 %). Value chain of the poultry industry Value Chain for indigenous poultry and eggs Marketing Producers sell live birds and eggs through two main channels: directly to consumers (at farm gate orat primary markets) and through village level primary collectors who in turn sell the products throughthe village level primary markets or delivered directly to retail outlets. Producers ferried live birdsand eggs to primary markets using hand baskets while collectors used bicycles. More often than notprimary collectors and at the primary markets sell live birds to retailers who operated in secondar ymarkets in urban centres/cities. The secondary collectors in turn sold directly to consumers or toother trader s or to hotels or restaurants. Retailers sell directly to consumers or to food outlets. Eggsare mainly used for further production at home although a small quantity is sold to travellers to along the major highway. The eggs are packaged in a unique way using locally available materials. Like in many countries, live chicken are transported in public transport. During normal demand and supply season the off takes rates for indigenous birds was estimated to be 10% which increased to 50 to 60% during high demand season such as opening of schools, public holidays and festive seasons.

to avoid highconfinement costs (feeds and housing) of birds throughout the day. Main marketing challengesinclude reduced income attributed to low farm gate prices (the beneficiaries were perceived to bemiddle men); season fluctuation in prices attributed to seasonal changes in demand and supply; lowsupply of indigenous chickens due to low productivity; and disruptions of markets, high mortality ofpoultry in the marketing process due to inadequate of disease control in the indigenous chickenvalue chain. Markets Like in many countries in the region, there are no poultr y designated markets and therefore livepoultry are sold in other goods and services markets constructed by central and local government intrading centres, large towns and cities. Key informants estimated that Urban city has about 3050retailers and wholesalers operating in its various markets while other markets in other provincescould be linked to 150 to 200 primary collectors and traders. Price In Urban city, considered as the main terminal market, indigenous eggs retailed at 120 and25% less in the rural areas. On the other hand, table eggs from exotic eggs retailedat 80-100 in the Urban and 33% less in the rural areas. The analysis shows thatindigenous prices are 40% higher than that of commercial exotic layers. The relatively higher pricescould be attributed to consumer preferences in favour of indigenous chicken products and

lowersupply attributed to low productivity and alternate use of indigenous eggs where they are mostlyused for hatching of chicks at the household level. The average price of live indigenous chicken is2500$. According to the poultry impact ban mentioned above, saw, the consumerprice of chicken at Urban cities rise from 900$/kg to 2200$/kg. The report estimates that about 70-85% of the consumer price for chicken and eggs typically reflects the cost of feed. The reportmentions of its intentions to prioritize the expansion of the domestic poultry industry and thereforerequiring competitive feed prices to reduce the cost of chicken products and increasing consumption. This in turn will benefit cereals and legumes producers with additional markets. Consumers Indigenous live bird meat and eggs are consumed in both rural and urban areas. Whereasproducers are able to consume their own production, other regular consumer category could be saidto belong to the middle and upper class attributed to the high prices of the indigenous poultry meat.In the rural areas, these are mainly traders and salaried people. In urban areas, consumers eitherconsume at the food outlets or purchase live birds from live birds markets located within urbanareas. As presented earlier, indigenous chicken eggs find their way but in small consignments' toconsumers. The figure above summarise the indigenous chicken value chain.

Majority of the broilers famers process the meat at the farm level and distribute directly to hotels andsupermarkets without involvement of traders, making the broiler value chain quite simple. There areno professional processors or assemblers. The processing include on farm slaughter and packagingand cold preservation. Retailers of broiler meat can be represented by small scale butcheries.Consumers purchase the meat from supermarkets and butcheries as well as in restaurants andhotels. The main consumers are in the middle and high class and mainly in urban areas. Accordingto producer estimate, the cost of producing one kilogram of broiler meat was approximately2000$ while the broiler meat farm gate price was 2000$, 2300$, 2500$ during low,medium and high demand season respectively one of the large scale producers cited that mostproducers produced 900 kg per day and 6 tonnes a week and low competition was reported. Mainslacks reported in broiler marketing were: low demand as consumers prefer local chicken, lack ofmodern equipments and low levels of biosecurity. Value Chain for broilers Table eggs sold within the country originates from two sources, internal production and imports fromUganda. More eggs are impor ted than produced. Key informants at the border points estimated that900000 eggs are imported weekly. Wholesalers import the eggs and distribute to retailer s h o p s , h o te l s a n d s u p e r m a r ke t s throughout the country. Small scale and medium scale farmers sell locallyproduced table eggs either directly to retail outlets (such as shops and supermarkets) or through primarytraders who in turn sell to retail and wholesale outlets while large scale farmers delivered eggsdirectly to

Spent layers are sold through twomain channels the live bird markets and directly into hotels and restaurants. The birds areslaughtered at the hotels and restaurants. A signiﬁcant proportion of live spent layers are sold toneighbouring DRC through middle men. The average price for spent layers was $ 1500-2000per bird.

Rwanda is less subject tosuch constraints thanks to a relatively temperate climate. Moreover, the day/night naturalcycle is ideal to egg production.

Weaknesses and constraints 16

The poultry industry is limited by several general constraints. Village poultry in poor condition Developing village poultry could be a key leverage in the generation of incomes for the poorestsmallholders and the ﬁght against poverty and malnutrition; the development of this sector ishindered by poor quality of the breeding stock (local breed), health conditions and housing constraints. Availability of day old chicks National supply of one-day chicks is virtually nonexistent. Almost all the chicks are imported. Chicks from arecheaper.but the delivery times are long (2 to 3 months.This makes even more urgent therecover y of the National hatchery. The hatcheries available are listed below:

The emergence of high-performance poultry industry is closely linked to the i m p l e m e n t a t i o n of p o u l t r y f e e d industry whose nonexistence compels farmers to produce the diets themselves. As aresult, feed prices are higher due to the lack of economies of scale, not to mention quality problems.Thus, prices of diets range from 250 to 320$/kg. Given the production cycle which is about 70days, the profit margin of farmer s is significantly reduced. Many ingredients used are relatively scarce in the domestic market and very expensive: soybean meal, cottonseed meal, sunflower meal, lysine, methionine, fishmeal,premixes… There is also an unpredictability of prices that fluctuate strongly over the year.

However, the density of thepoultry flock is expected to increase dramatically in the coming years, which will increase the risks ofdiseases. That led to the necessity to anticipate by implementing efficient poultr y healthmanagement system. Marketing constraints 

Disorganization of the poultry products market



Unsuitability to market realities, resulting from the absence of cutting and processingfacilities. The price of chicken meat is relatively high (about 2100 $/kg, whereas the wholechicken price ranges from 3700 to 6000 $). Sale in cuts could allow better accessibility forcustomers with low purchasing power;



wrong ideas about chicken meat: Industrial chicken's meat allegedly less savory than thelocal breed's;



Quality challenge: RBS should be put to use to develop quality standards for chicken meat.

Financial constraints Modern poultry is a high-input activity and requires ideally balancing its budget before the start.Otherwise, any rupture of financing during the production phase will irrevocably compromise theprofitability. Hence the necessity to credit lines available for farmers; however, financial institutionsare cautious because considering the activity as too risky. Institutional constraints T h e p o u l t r y f a r m e r s e x p re s s e d grievances that require government support for their implementation: 

Poultry farming in winter require temperature administration in the poultry house is a critical precondition for better generation and well being of birds and better proﬁt while doing poultry farming in winter Winter season has incredible impact on poultry generation by bringing down the temperature of encompassing. Amid winter when temperature goes down and different issues like decrease in egg generation, lessening in water consumption, diminishment in fruitfulness and hatchability and so forth happens. Consequently, the administration of poultry amid winter is an essential sympathy toward poultry agriculturist.

required by winged creatures amid winter. Introduction of a building as for wind and sun therefore impact temperature, and light on diverse outer surfaces. In winter the bend of the sun's noticeable way is abbreviated, an east west arrangement of a rectangular house gives a greatest increase of sunlight based vitality in winter. House ought to be composed in a way that most extreme daylight enters the shed amid day time. Feathered creatures ought to be shielded from chilled winds, for this gunny packs ought to be hanged at the spots from where the frosty air enters. These gunny packs ought to be hanged down when daylight goes at night till the landing of d a y l i g h t n e x t m o rn i n g . G e t t i n g brooding right is especially important in winter. While the method does not change with regard to temperatures and relative humidity inside the house, the cost and time to achieve the same results does increase. Poultry Ventilation Management Amid winter season it is important to keep the hose draft free however with a lot of ventilation. Fowls discharge a ton of dampness in their breath and droppings which antagonistically inﬂuences their well being, if there is

confined ventilation it causes smelling salts develop noticeable all around which causes respiratory issues. In this way, they require a lot of outside air circling around the house. For the reason sliding windows are valuable as they can be opened amid day and shut amid night. There ought to likewise be course of action of fumes fans to evacuate unclean air. The first 24 to 48 hours is crucial in the bird's life as this affects health and per formance throughout the whole production cycle. While doing poultry farming in winter number of feeders ought to be expanded when contrasted with summer. Lower winter temperatures cause the air entering the house to fall very quickly to the floor due to the increased weight of moisture instead of mixing with the warmer air in the house and falling more slowly. As this cold, damp air falls, bedding/ litter can start to “go off” even in the early stages. It is therefore crucial to adjust ventilation and heating on a daily, or even hourly basis, to combat this effect. It is important to get the air and floor temperatures correct, as chicks don't have the ability to regulate their own body temperature until they are 12-14 days old.

Poultry Litter Management Before chick being put in house, the surface of floor ought to be secured with a bedding material called litter. It offers solace to the winged animals. A decent quality litter serves as an encasing in keeping up uniform temperature, likewise ingests dampness and advances drying. It weakens fecal material in this way diminishing contact in the middle of feathered creatures and fertiliser. It likewise protects the chicks from the cooling impacts of the ground and gives insurance pad in the middle of fowl and floor. Around 6 inches of litter is required in houses amid winter. The litter offers warmth to the flying creatures amid winter. In the event that litter administration is appropriate, it will be felt entirely warm when taken close by Poultry Feeding Management Poultry utilise nourishment for two fundamental purposes i.e., as a vitality source to keep up body temperature and to bear on ordinary physiological exercises and as building material for advancement of bones, substance, quill, egg and so on The variety in food utilisation is littler for every degree Fahrenheit change in temperature when the climate is frosty than when it is hot. Low temperature causes more encourage admission and higher oxygen request. Subsequently, when the climate gets colder, it is crucial to give the chicken a lot of sustenance as they require additional vitality for keeping up body temperature. Consumption of calories of ME/winged animal/day shifts as the surrounding temperature changes. Typically these distinctions are as per the following:

When winged animal eat more nourish, alongside vitality, different supplements are additionally devoured more which are really not required and they turn into a waste. To maintain a strategic distance from this wastage amid winter vitality rich sources like oil/fat ought to be added to the eating regimen or level of different supplements may be decreased keeping the vitality at same level. To give the chicks the best start they should be feeding and drinking as soon as possible. Producers should provide additional feed on paper placed on the ﬂoor, together with supplementary drinkers, allowing the least travel for any chick. It is useful in the ﬁrst 24 to 48 hours after placing to select a random sample of chicks a few times and gently check that the crop is full, soft and round to show that feed and water are present and the chick is thriving. Feed and water must be of good quality to allow the chick to start the growing process immediately and aid absorption of the yolk sack. Feed ought to be accessible to the feathered creature entire of the day. It has been tentatively demonstrated that for legitimate development of oven amid summer, diet containing 23% protein and 3100 Kcal ME/kg eating regimen is required. While in winter 3400 Kcal/kg ME and 23% protein is required. Raising the amino acid levels, even above recommended levels, will support better FCR, higher growth rates, and higher breast meat yields. Amino acid density then becomes a matter of setting economic priorities. Higher protein diets will result in higher water intake, more water excretion and

higher depositions of nitrogen in the litter. So it is important to feed Amino Power from first day to twentieth at least. Poultry Water Management During poultry farming in winter season winged creatures take less water so far support of water in the body, it is important to give constant supply of new water which can be taken by the feathered creature. Water must be crisp and clean and you should mix Aquacure in drinking water. On the off chance that water is sufficiently chilly, then it ought to be given to chicken in the wake of adding boiling hot water to it, so that the water comes to ordinary temperature. In ice falling territories, blockage of funnel is a major issue because of solidifying of water amid winter season. At the point when temperature goes underneath 0°C routine assessment of funnel line ought to be done to dodge blockage of water. Many of immunisations /prescription/ anti-stress vitamins are given to poultry through water. As water utilisation of winged animal is decreased amid winter season. Thus, care ought to be taken that waters are uprooted couple of hours before water pharmaceutical and solution/immunisation is given in less measure of water so feathered creatures can expend complete water and every flying creature get advantage of medication/antibody or different supplements. Keeping chickens through the winter is not a hard thing to do with the right information. I hope this article will be helpful for you, doing poultry farming in winter. 

HOW TO CHOOSE RIGHT XYLANASE FOR PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT? BY DR RAHUL SAWARKAR, TECHNICAL MANAGER, AB VISTA SOUTH ASIA Since 2000, there has been anincrease in all raw material prices. As a result of the rise in commodity costs, energy costs have also increased. Hence, maximisingenergy utilisation in the diet has become more important in order to reduce feed costs.NSPases have traditionally proven their role in energy utilisation and nutritionists may start to revisit the need for NSPases in feed formulation. 100Kcal energycurrently costs approx. Rs.650/tonne and the use of NSPasesbringgood ROI. Non-starch Polysaccharides (NSPs) are the main constituent of cell walls and encapsulate nutrients, but are not broken down by the endogenous enzymes of poultry, interfering with nutrient digestion in the small intestine. The NSPs include arabinose, xylose, cellulose, galactose, mannose, glucoronic acid, fucose, rhamnose, etc. Basis of selecting NSPase Different NSPase enzymes perform differently. It is important to choose the right NSPase enzyme in order to improve not only the performance parameters, but also to achieve the real cost savings. There is large variation in the NSP content of feedstuffs and hence choosing the rightNSPase becomes even more important. It is an established fact that the main NSP in raw materials is arabinoxylan and hence Xylanases, which break down arabinoxylans, are a better choice than other NSPases.



Xylanase works in different pH range so it is very difficult to judge at what pH range the fibres breakdown but the xylanase should release AXOS which are beneficial to the bird and should not have detrimental effect on the performance as certain xylanases release AXOS not good for performance.



Xylanaseshould not only work on NSPs but also releasexylo-oligosaccharides and inﬂuence the intestinal fermentation.



Xylanase should release a hormone that delaysgastric emptying and should be strongly correlated with epithelial cell proliferation, promoting digestibility.

Econase XT is a xylanase by AB Vista which meets all the above criteria to bring maximum proﬁtability and improve performance of birds. AB Vista, through its dedicated R&D, alsooffers quickstix and quantiplate – on-site quality checks to detect/ measure the level of its xylanases infeed.  Contd of...Page 06

Obesity is preventable



Overweight and obesity are defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that may impair health. Body mass index (BMI) is a simple index of weight-for-height that is commonly used to classify overweight and obesity in adults. It is defined as a person's weight in kilograms divided by the square of his height in meters (kg/m2)



Overweight and obesity are leading risks for global deaths. Around 3.4 million adults die each year as a result of being overweight or obese. In addition, 44% of the diabetes burden, 23% of the heart disease burden and between 7% and 41% of certain cancer burdens are attributable to overweight and obesity



Overweight and obesity are linked to more deaths worldwide than underweight. For example, 65% of the world's population live in countries where overweight and obesity kill more people than underweight (this includes all high-income and most middle-income countries)

Selection of Xylanase 

We need to choose axylanase, which breaks down soluble and insoluble arabinoxylans to ensure maximum NSP content breakdown, in order to work in different cereals.



Pelleting conditions vary dramati-cally across the globe and between feed mills so we need to use a xylanase which is intrinsically thermostable and does not require any coating. The enzyme should survive the rigors of pelleting conditions.



The particle size of xylanase molecule should be such that it should not get denatured and remains stable in premix. It should get homogenously mixed in milled or unmilled feed and should be easy forassayability.



Thexylanaseshouldmaintain its activity throughout the gastroin-testinal tract to ensure maximum breakdown of NSPs and it should not be hydrolyzed by pepsin.

PRODUCTION OF QUALITY CHICKS

Mr. G.K. Rathinam Hatchery Specialist, Technical Consultant 5/2 I, Rajapurampudur, Kanakkanpatti P.O., Palani Tk, Dindugul Dist, Tamilnadu, India. Pincode: 624613. Email: gkrathnam@gmail.com Mobile: +91 99947 71380

In a hatchery – particularly in the setter and hatchers – ventilation is key to producing a top quality chick. The f o l l o w i n g f o u r c o m p o n e n t s a re essential so chicks get what they need to grow and develop according to their genetic potential 1. Oxygen Throughout incubation, chick embryos must have an adequate supply of oxygen so that they can develop fully and properly. Oxygen enters through the shell while carbon dioxide (CO2) escapes in the same manner. 2. Air Exchange Eggs emit CO2 as they develop, but embryos need oxygen to survive and hatch. Therefore, the air inside a setter must constantly be replaced – bringing in fresh oxygen and removing excess CO2. 3. Air Distribution It's important that the air ﬂows evenly so that each room receives the right amount of cool air and oxygen at all times. If you have a unit distributing a certain number of cubic feet per minute (CFMs), placement of the air conditioning unit and ductwork is crucial to make sure fresh air reaches each room at the same rate. There is a register in each setter machine ensure air is distributed in the correct amount of air at all times. 4. Extraction Fans When chicks hatch, they produce even more CO2 than 28

during incubation. This must be removed from the hatching area via extraction fans. The exhaust goes into a plenum (a small, attached room) where it then exits the building. If a hatchery is bringing in 40,000 CFMs, for example, it must also exhaust 40,000 CFMs to achieve a perfect air exchange, because hatcheries operate 24 hours a day, the staffs are always able to monitor the air exchange and catch any glitches right away, before they become larger issues. Each of these four components helps determine whether embryos will hatch and grow to their genetic potential. With proper oxygen and air exchange, baby chicks are able to thrive and develop correctly. Indicators of Overheated Chicks Traditional chick-grading standards do not always pick up damage due to overheating. Because overheated chicks hatch earlier than they should, they are often smaller, weaker and more prone to infections as well as a host of other health problems. C h i c k s Q u a l i t y A s s e s s m e n t To properly assess chicks and establish if they have overheated, check for the following characteristics a. Colour and Strength Chicks should be bright yellow. Overheated chicks have poorly absorbed yolk sacs and hence pigments are whiter than normal. Also, chicks should be active and be able to stand up right away. If placed on their backs, they should turn over within seconds. b. Yolk-free Body Mass (YFBM) Overheated chicks are smaller and have bigger, non-absorbed yolk sacs. The more serious cases of poorly absorbed yolk sacs translate in unhealed navels.

Some yolk is left as chicks need that for nutrition during their very first hours. This is q u i c k l y absorbed and should be gone about the time chicks' transition to feed/water. If there is too much yolk, however, live chick weight is lower and indicates a weaker chick. c. Chick/Shank Length Overheated chicks are smaller since they used available protein during incubation as an energy source, rather than fuel to grow muscle. This is apparent when the chicks' shank length falls below the established target, as indicated in the chart below. d. Feathering Good feather development is synonymous with good chick development during incubation. Chicks should look dry and fluffy soon after hatching. However, excess development of the wing feathers does indicate early hatching – and most likely overheating – due to prolonged time in the hatcher baskets. e. Disease Control One consequence to overheating embryos is they are more susceptible to Colibacillosis, or E. coli. Colibacillosis prevention includes good hygiene of hatching eggs and g o o d h y g i e n e i n t h e h a tc h e r y. Contaminated hatch debris and chick fluff in the hatchery are major sources of bacterial infection. It is also important to follow good hygiene during was te dis pos al. Properly disinfecting the hatcher trays will kill bacteria and prevent E. coli.

POULTRY FARMS, WILD BIRD SANCTUARIES ON ALERT AFTER INDIAN BIRD FLU OUTBREAKS With at least 70 wild birds and ducks killed due to avian inﬂuenza caused by H5N8 virus, nearly 1200 birds have already been culled in India by the government, writes Basudev Mahapatra. First traced in the national capital Delhi, the virus has subsequently been found in bird samples from Madhya Pradesh and Kerala states. The ﬁrst cases occurred on 17 October in a Delhibased wildlife park. Fearing that the disease would spread to bird sanctuaries and places where migratory birds stay in winter, the government of India has issued alerts

throughout the country. The government of India has co n s ti tu te d an i n te r-m i n i s te ri al Committee to maintain constant vigil on the situation arising out of the avian inﬂuenza outbreaks. Besides monitoring the situation, the Committee will assist the states in taking steps to contain the spread of avian inﬂuenza, according to the ministry of agriculture. All bird sanctuaries and areas close to lakes have been advised to keep a close watch on the situation and any case of suspicious death of birds should be brought to the government notice immediately, the ministry has said. Major bird gathering sites like the Chilika lagoon, where thousands of migratory birds congregate during every winter, have been put on high 38

alert. An advisory has been issued to step up surveillance around poultry firms as well. However, despite appeals that there is no danger to the humans from H5N8 virus, the poultry market has been badly affected. As the first state, the southern state of Tamil Nadu has advised its poultry owners not to buy chicken, ducks and eggs from bird-flu-affected Kerala. Indian Poultry Farmers Urge Soybean Imports for Cheaper Feed Indian Poultry Farmers Urge Soybean Imports for Cheaper Feed

Indian poultry farmers have urged their government to allow them to import soybeans without tax, saying that the important feed ingredient is too expensive. In a letter to the Prime Minister, Tamil Nadu Egg Poultry Farmers' Federation vice-president Mr V. Subramaniyam said that the industry was unable to withstand the frequent price hike, The Hindu reported. Despite an increase in production of soya bean in the current year, the price is on the rise in India. Poultry farmers said that the average feed price for 75 kg have increased from Rs (Rupees) 925 in 2005 to Rs 1,458 in 2008, Rs 1,817 in 2011, Rs 2,257 in 2012 and Rs 2,105 in the current year.

Mr Subramaniyam claimed in the letter that traders are hoarding the product. “Traders refuse to sell the product and are creating artiﬁcial demands making the price to go up,” he said. “The government can instruct the State governments to initiate action against hoarders,” he added. Indian Poultry Sector Seeks FY17 Maize Import Allocation Even though maize prices are expected to remain stable, trade veterans think that the industry has a short window of two months to get import allocations for 2016-17 from the government in

order to keep the prices cool during the rest of the year. Maize prices have declined by about Rs 750/tonne during last few weeks, giving relief to end users like poultry farmers, reports the EconomicTimes. The NCDEX spot prices for Nizamabad have declined marginally in last two weeks by 0.45 per cent. "More stocks are being liquidated now after the import process started," said Vasant Kumar Shetty, conveyor, All India Broiler Co-ordination Committee. However, as the gap between demand and supply is huge, the prices are still high for the feed industry. "The total gap in demand and supply is more than 1 million tons.

5 INGREDIENT BREADED LEMON CHICKEN

(Life Time Period 10 Years)

Ingredients 

2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts



cup lemon juice (fresh is best, but bottled is ﬁne, too) 1½ cups seasoned breadcrumbs Vegetable oil, to pan fry Lemon pepper, to taste Parsley and/or lemon, to garnish (optional)

   

Method 

 



Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally, so that you get 4 thin chicken breast pieces. Put down about a foot of plastic wrap on the counter top and lay the chicken pieces on it. Cover with an additional piece of plastic wrap and use a meat mallet to evenly pound out the chicken breasts until about ¼" thick. Heat ¼" of vegetable oil in a large, high-walled pan over medium. In a shallow bowl, pour or squeeze in the lemon juice. In a separate shallow bowl, add in the breadcrumbs. Dip each chicken breast slice, one at a time, into the lemon juice and let sit for 2 minutes. Turn over and let sit for an additional 2 minutes. Transfer to the breadcrumbs and press gently to help the breadcrumbs adhere to each side. Set aside. Continue until all of the chicken is breaded. Add 2 of the breaded chicken breasts to the oil and sprinkle liberally with lemon pepper. You want to make sure there is ample room between the chicken breasts, because overcrowding the pan results in soggy chicken. Fry until dark golden brown on the bottom, about 4 minutes. Using tongs, carefully turn the chicken. Sprinkle with additional lemon pepper, and continue to pan fry for 4 more minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel lined sheet and repeat with remaining pieces of chicken. Garnish with a sprinkle of parsley and slices of lemon, and serve immediately.

has to import more corn to fill this gap in demand and supply due to a sharp fall in Kharif corn production," said Rajiv Yadav, vice president (grains and oilseeds), Noble Agri. Commerce Ministry has allowed PEC to import 5 lakh tonne maize under Tarrif Rate Quota (TRQ) at zero duty. State trading company, PEC, had floated first tender for import of 2.90 lakh tonne maize, with a condition that it will be 100 per cent non-GMO. Industry sources said that PEC will have to import 5 lakh tonne maize before March 31. But, in order to keep the prices controlled during May to August, when prices normally remain high, the industry wants the government to allocate import for 2016-17 by February. "With the rabi harvest expected from April onward, there is a short window of three months for the shipments to come and cool domestic prices. Imports beyond March may not be allowed by the government due to new crop corn arrivals out of rabi crop and imported corn might have an adverse effect on corn farmers," said Yadav. Currently, there is fresh arrival from the ongoing harvest of the late kharif crop from Karnataka, while the rabi crop is expected to arrive from end of March.
