On Monday, 9-12-2024, the local feed and raw material prices saw an increase, with broiler feed prices ranging between 18,500 pounds and 21,900 pounds, and laying hens feed between 15,500 and 17,000 pounds. The price of imported corn, a crucial raw material, also rose, contributing to the overall increase in feed prices. This surge is attributed to the global stock exchange prices of raw materials like soybean meal, corn, and sunflower meal, as well as the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian war and the rise in global fuel prices. The feed prices for various types of livestock, including cattle, ducks, sheep, and others, also fluctuated. Dr. Abdel Aziz Al-Sayed, the head of the Poultry Wealth Division at the Cairo Chamber of Commerce, confirmed these price fluctuations, highlighting that the final feed price for each type of fodder can vary based on quality, protein percentage, and freight costs.
