PUTRAJAYA: The move to halt chicken exports from June 1 will be reviewed once the country's supply becomes stable, says Agriculture and Food Industry Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ronald Kiandee .
Ronald explained that the country was currently facing a shortage of chicken due to several factors as informed by the industry, including disease and weight that did not meet standards to be marketed. He said the government had intervened earlier to address the increase in chicken prices by providing subsidies of 60 sen per kg to farmers in February and March and then added another 80 sen in April and May, making the total subsidy at RM1.40 per kg.
Asked whether the ministry would set up a special committee to monitor chicken supply, he said the proposal would be studied if necessary as Veterinary Services Department was currently tasked with monitoring the chicken production situation.
