SERDANG: The Agriculture and Food Security Ministry will continue with the existing formula of subsidy distribution to broiler chicken breeders and supplier companies at a division ratio of 10 sen and 70 sen, while poultry farmers in Selangor are crying foul with a demand for equal subsidies.
Agriculture and Food Security Minister Datuk Seri Mohamad Sabu said chicken breeders and supplier companies need to discuss between themselves the distribution of the 80 sen subsidy to overcome the increase in the cost of chicken and egg production because the government will not intervene in the negotiation of the distribution agreement.
