A-maize-ing: Plans are underway to ramp up industrial corn production, which is a main component in animal feed.
RAWANG: Plans are afoot to ramp up corn production in Malaysia in order to give the poultry rearing industry a boost, says Agriculture and Food Industries Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ronald Kiandee. This is one of the strategies being considered to address the high price of chicken, which is a favourite of Malaysians, especially during festive seasons.
The type of corn production being considered is industrial corn (not the same as the sweet corn for human consumption) that is an important component of animal feed, especially for the poultry industry.
