This study attempts to identify the socio-economic characteristics, costs, returns and profitability, based on the functional analysis through the private poultry farming in Kishoreganj district in Bangladesh. In total of 150 poultry farms were randomly selected taking 50 from each category(small, medium and large). The field level data were collected by direct interviews with broiler farmers using survey questionnaires. This study found that cost of feed, cost of day‐old‐chicks, cost of human labor and veterinary charge were key and important inputs for profitability of poultry farms. The elasticities of broiler farms were 0.46, 0.90, 0.55 and 0.63 for small, medium, large and all broiler farms respectively. It is also observed that the summation of elasticity of different inputs for broiler farms was less than one, implying that the production function exhibited decreasing returns to scale i.e., doubling the inputs will less than double the output.
