[edit] History

Established online networks of knowledge and information provide robust environments where farmers, industry personnel, researchers and the community can increase their knowledge of poultry and poultry production. Designed to complement and support these networks, Poultry Hub was developed to satisfy the need for an easily accessible hub outlining both the scope of universally available poultry-related information as well as education and training opportunities relevant to poultry production.[1]

[edit] Software

Like Wikipedia, the operation of Poultry Hub depends on MediaWiki, a custom-made, free and open source wiki software platform. As with other wikis, registered users of Poultry Hub are encouraged to participate in its continued development by editing the content. Poultry Hub also includes event promotion and news tools that integrate with the wiki software.
