Poultry farming contributes to food security, economic development, stability and social equitability for the farmer and his family and supports social bonds. The intervention of these functions together leads to the social and economic sustainability of the farms. In order to determine the degree of sustainability of poultry farms, analyze the strengths and weaknesses of the production system and identify practices to improve we proceeded to assess the socio-economic sustainability of the poultry farms in the province of Msila by the “DIAMOND” method. The results indicate that the best-capitalized farmers and those with technical and economic know-how are aware of the issue of economic viability and diversification of activities and customers, which improves their incomes and decreases the economic fragility of their farms. However, for most farmers, the work is difficult and the productivity of the workforce is low.
