Arzu Man Ara certainly prefers her poultry big. In late 2016 the innovative farmer from Nayapara village in Dinajpur's Nawabganj upazila set up a successful turkey venture. But turkeys, it would seem, just weren't big enough. Thus she turned her attention to the world's largest bird, the ostrich. She imported 20 ostrich chicks from Africa, with high hopes that the bird farmed all over the world for its feathers, leather and meat will prove a winner here. She claims that hers is the first private-sector ostrich concern in the country. “Ostrich meat is sought after in global markets, with one kilogram selling for as much as $90,” Arzu says. “High in protein, ostrich meat can supplement local demand for beef and mutton. It's healthier than other red meat. Ostrich meat contains less fat and has lower levels of cholesterol.”
