White fowl price in the
market increases due to the blue-eared pig epidemic |
White fowl prices in Dong Nai
province has risen to VND34 to VND35 thousand/kg, Tam Hoang fowl at VND45 to
VND46 thousand/kg while the white fowl price used to be at about VND22 to VND23
thousand/kg and Tam Hoang fowl at VND29 to VND30 thousand/kg. As fowl prices
rise, many farms now want to recover their investments and make profits, but
breeding chickens in the market are so scarce. Chicken prices have increased
from VND2,000/chick to more than VN10,000/chick. According to the Department of
Agriculture and Rural Development, breeding chickens would remain scarce in a
long time.
