Poultry prices witness 30% decrease — sector representative
AMMAN — Poultry prices in the Jordanian market have witnessed a 30 per cent decrease during the past week due to the rising operational costs and the low purchasing ability, according to Hassan Abudaqar, board member of the Jordanian Poultry Producers association.
“Today, feathered chicken costs JD1.15 per kilo, while plucked chicken costs JD1.50 per kilo,” Abudaqar told The Jordan Times.
He added that the rising operational costs in the Jordanian poultry sector, also partly due to the cold weather, have caused farmers to suffer notable losses.
