Poultry industry pushes for ₹110 per kg live chicken price
India’s poultry industry is urging a live‑chicken price of ₹110 per kilogram. In Hyderabad, producers and officials highlighted that rising maize costs and limited supply, linked to El Niño‑driven weather, are squeezing margins. They say the higher price is needed to offset feed expenses and protect farmer earnings, and ensure an overall price structure that reflects costs, while authorities weigh consumer affordability.
