Congratulations on the 44th anniversary of the Agricultural and Fisheries Newspaper. In recent years, there have been many changes in the livestock industry. The poultry sector is no exception. Production costs have risen significantly due to increases in raw material prices, including grain prices. Poultry farms are experiencing management difficulties, and as a result, the prices of eggs and chicken that consumers purchase have also risen, placing a significant burden on the people. Our poultry industry suffered damage from highly pathogenic avian influenza (AI) during the winter this year. Since last year, Europe and the United States, which have suffered major damage from AI, have been implementing vaccine policies.
