Commercial Poultry Farm Projects in Iraq
New broiler and layer capacity in an extreme-heat, weak-grid environment.
Direct answer
A 100,000-bird automated broiler project in Iraq needs about 4 houses of 25,000 birds (14 m × 123 m each, 6,897 m² total), roughly 2,375 t of feed per year, 92.7 m³ of water per peak day, and an indicative CAPEX of $1.38M – $2.38M. Design conditions used: 48 °C dry-bulb, 22 °C wet-bulb, 3 °C winter minimum.
- — Design dry-bulb near 48 °C makes cooling capacity and pad sizing the governing decision.
- — Assume long generator running hours; fuel dominates OPEX.
- — Logistics and installation supervision materially affect landed project cost.

Iraq poultry project FAQ
How much does a 100,000-bird broiler farm cost in Iraq?
Indicative CAPEX is $1.38M – $2.38M for an automated closed-house project, about $13.8–$23.8 per bird including a 1.25 landed-cost index for Iraq. Land, permits, working capital and live birds are excluded. Class-4 estimate, ±30%.
How many poultry houses are needed for 100,000 broilers in Iraq?
About 4 houses of roughly 25,000 birds each, sized at 14 m × 123 m (1,724 m² per house, 6,897 m² total) at the density this climate supports.
What ventilation and climate system suits Iraq?
Low humidity (48 °C dry-bulb, 22 °C wet-bulb) makes evaporative cooling highly effective — 15 cm pads sized correctly are usually the single most valuable climate investment.
How much feed and water does the project need in Iraq?
About 2,375 tonnes of feed per year and 92.7 m³ of water per peak day including cooling demand. Feed storage should cover 7 days of peak consumption.
Is backup power necessary for a poultry farm in Iraq?
Grid reliability here is rated poor. Assume the farm runs on generator for a material share of the year and budget fuel accordingly; solar can offset lighting, pumps and controllers but never replaces backup power.
Can HatchMatch help finance a poultry project in Iraq?
Qualified commercial projects can be introduced to independent third-party financing partners. Financing is subject to their approval — HatchMatch does not provide credit and does not guarantee approval.
