Understanding Hen (Local) Prices
Hen (Local) reacts quickly to feed costs โ maize and soymeal are the bulk of the input โ and to demand around festivals and weddings, or, the other way, to disease scares. Poultry moves day to day more than grain because live birds and eggs cannot be stored for long, so a hen (local) rate can shift within the week.
Broiler is usually quoted per kilogram of live weight and eggs per hundred or per piece, so confirm the unit before comparing rows. The band on each row is the size or grade spread on the day. On this page, rates are quoted per kg.
A rising rate does not always mean a better margin for the farmer: because both the feed input and the bird output move, it is worth reading the feed-grain pages alongside this one.
