Poultry farmers bear long-term losses. Inopportune ceiling price makes more business closed.

With the impact of the global of raw material shortage and skyrocketing costs, many domestic poultry farms have suspended operations. More than 10 small egg farmers in Penang have permanently closed due to high input costs. If no improvement being done, more farms will be closed, and it will for sure, affecting the entire supply chain.
Chicken farmers who have been "choked" by the top price are now severely hit and are now actively seeking the government to raise the ceiling price from USD 9.62/kg to USD 10.70/kg to ensure the survival of the industry.
