Poultry meets the demands of population to egg and poultry. The largest poultry complexes are in Baku, Ganja and Nakhchivan. The deficiency of feed resources hinders the development of poultry in Azerbaijan.
Silkworm breeding has developed in Sheki-Zakatala, Kur-Araz, Upper Karabakh and in the plain and foothills of Nakhchivan.
Apiculture has developed in the sub-alpine and alpine meadows of highlands and foothills of Azerbaijan.
There are 3 groups of agricultural regions in Azerbaijan according to the level of specialization. Irrigated regions of agriculture (Kur-Araz, Lenkeran, Samur-Devechi lowlands, and Araz River plains in Nakhchivan);
Agricultural regions without irrigation (foothills and middle highlands);
Pastures and regions of animal husbandry.
Azerbaijan has not specialized in the silkworm breeding, apiculture and paddy growing fields of agriculture yet.
The fully-specialized fields of agriculture are cotton-growing, horticulture, vim-growing, vegetable-growing, tobacco-growing, etc.
