JOHOR BARU: The removal of price controls for chickens and eggs will give poultry farmers some “breathing space” but they are wary about being “too happy too soon,” according to the Federation of Livestock Farmers’ Association of Malaysia.
The federation’s broiler unit chairman Kwei Yew Tong said chicken farmers have been facing challenges and operating at a loss for many years as they have had to meet government’s ceiling price.
