Thai livestock farmers are facing rising production costs due to high prices of animal feed raw materials such as corn and soybean meal, exacerbated by government policies. The high costs are not matched by selling prices, putting pressure on farmers. The Association for the Promotion of Chicken Farming in Thailand and the Federation of Livestock and Aquaculture have called on the government to address these issues. The Federation suggests free importation of corn and removing a 2% import duty on soybean meal to lower production costs. They also recommend allowing the selling price of meat products to follow the market mechanism to help farmers.
