Abstract : An approach and adoption to new technology in poultry and pig production was desired to study and associate important factors in particularly in non-ruminant livestock farming globally, threats and opportunities, and a comparison of the pig and poultry farming in Nepal and other developed countries including China with regard to the use of modern skills, tools and technology. A qualitative study was done with an evaluation in previous research conducted in the area of science and technology usage in pig and poultry farming from research papers, journals, national and international annual reports and pig and poultry websites that were studied using the internet as valuable tools in finding the disproportion between developed and developing nations. The findings of the study suggested that the farmers of Nepal practiced traditional farming methods and simple and old technology. However, extension in the use of modern and advanced technology in poultry rearing is found to be more in comparison to pig farming. Nepal should have appropriate plans and policies for promoting the application of technology in both fields. The result of the study showed that use of technology in pig and poultry farming have positive impacts globally by employment opportunities, nutrient supply, business and productivity. Developing countries like Nepal would need sustainable and modern technology to increase meat and egg production, which could be implemented to optimize livestock farming.

Keywords : Adoption, Approach, Disproportion, Extension, Pig production, Poultry production.
