Helping our poultry farmers’ needs

Nigeria's poultry industry is facing a major crisis, with production costs rising sharply, particularly for feed which accounts for about 70% of costs. Farmers are experiencing shortages of day-old chicks and rising egg prices, reaching up to 300 Naira each. This situation has led to calls for reforms, including requests for cheaper financing and better access to quality inputs. The federal government has begun responding by tightening oversight of import allocations and establishing systems to improve access to chicks.
