Poultry feed prices in Egypt have fluctuated due to high dollar exchange rates and the cost of imported raw materials. Prices for broiler feed range from 20,150 to 19,700 pounds per ton, while fattening feed is priced at least 20,700 pounds per ton. The cost of other types of poultry feed and livestock feed also varies. The increase in feed prices is due to global price increases and the rise of the dollar. The Ministry of Agriculture has implemented contract farming for maize this season.
