In March 2024, Indonesia saw a month-to-month inflation rate of 0.56%, largely due to significant price hikes in purebred chicken eggs and meat by 9.40% and 5.64% respectively, as reported by the Central Statistics Agency (BPS). This inflation was attributed to increased demand during the Ramadan period, despite a rise in corn production aimed at reducing animal feed costs. The high demand for poultry products during the festive season played a major role in driving the overall inflation.
