According to deputy director Yuriy Yakovlev, changes in logistics routes have led to an increase in the price of Ukrainian chicken, making it less competitive in foreign markets. Yakovlev emphasizes the importance of establishing exports and entering foreign markets, particularly in the Middle East, Europe, and Africa. The cost of poultry products is expected to increase due to rising electricity and fuel prices, while Ukraine may potentially increase chicken exports to the UK due to a bird flu epidemic.
