Improving Egg Production in Two Indigenous Communities through the Adaptation of Management Practices and Local Knowledge: The Results of Participative Research

Abstract: Free‐ranging poultry (FRP) are known to be efficient in the recycling of residues of agroforestry systems. The objective of this paper is to present the results of participative applied research on the improvement of egg production in two indigenous communities in Costa Rica. This involved a dialectic process of adaptation between indigenous knowledge and introduced management practices. We report an increase in egg production through the use of nests and improved diets.
