Pakistan: Poultry industry recovers after difficult years

Production cuts and lower raw material costs in 2023 will play an important role in the industry's recovery. Dr. Rehman notes that broiler production will decline to 12 million in 2023 from 14.43 million in 2022. This will also lead to a decline in the broiler population to 1 billion in 2023, down from 1.4 billion in 2022.

The reduction in supplies will help farmers and feed mills recover losses and support industry growth in the coming years, especially in 2024/25 . This is positive news for poultry farmers who will be able to recover from the period of instability and return to normal operations.

In addition, it is worth noting that the revival of poultry farming in Pakistan could have a positive effect on the country's economy. Increased production and supply can create new jobs and promote rural development. This can also lead to improved export potential of the poultry industry, which will have a positive impact on Pakistan's foreign trade balance.
