BANGKOK (Reuters): Thailand's poultry sector is poised to grow this year, as an avian flu outbreak in top exporter Brazil creates market opportunities, and lower feed costs improve margins for the world's third-largest shipper of chicken meat, industry leaders said.
Prasit Boondoungprasert, CEO of Charoen Pokphand Foods , Thailand's largest agribusiness, said the current market situation is favourable for the Thai poultry industry. "Prices are reasonably good, costs are low," he said.
