Chicken Crunch: Imports or Local Farms | Guyana News
Description
Guyana’s poultry industry is in a tight spot—local chicken production is down, but demand’s soaring, risking runaway prices. The Guyana Poultry Producers Association is pushing for temporary imports to bridge the gap until local farms recover. Minister Zulfikar Mustapha is reviewing the request, weighing consumer needs, farmer welfare, and long-term industry health. It’s a delicate balancing act: keep chicken on plates, keep prices fair, and support local farmers—all while avoiding long-term damage. The final call is still pending.
