KUALA LUMPUR: Chicken sellers have increased their prices despite a 60 sen per kilo drop in ex-farm prices, says Federation of Livestock Farmers Association of Malaysia (FLFAM).
The association's broiler unit chairman Kwei Yew Tong said, however, the increase was justifiable considering the recent hike in fuel prices.
Kwei said that as of yesterday ex-farm prices stood at RM4 per kilo but added he had read reports that the market price had risen to RM7 per kilo in several places.
Grade AA eggs stand at 28.5sen while Grade A, B, C, and D stand at 28sen, 27.5sen, 27sen and 26.5sen respectively.“The rise in oil price is not the main reason for any increase in the beef price. The high demand for beef by other countries has resulted in the price increase,” he added.
Dr Santhirakesu said the price of beef would remain at RM12 per kilo
