MANILA - A poultry group requested Wednesday for the suspension of chicken importation in the Philippines as it sounded alarm over excess supply in the country.

In a statement, Elias Inciong, president of the United Broiler Raisers Association, said that based on the weekly inventory of the National Meat Inspection Service , there are 78,698.01 metric tons of chicken in accredited cold storage in the country, as of April 27.

“Yung dating pumupunta sa mga fast food, sa mga hotel, sa mga restaurant, sa mga lechon manok, biglang nawalan ng pupuntahan dahil pinasara. Yung kasing 30 percent production ng industriya, napupunta diyan sa hotels, restaurants. Yung 30 percent na yun, pumatong yun papunta doon sa mga households, yung pumunta sa grocery at mga palengke. Kaya talagang nabulunan yung sistema."

“'Yung nasa cold storage kasi, both local naman yan at imported. Hindi makagalaw, ipit na ipit yung industriya. Kasi ang karaniwang intervention ng industriya, kung hindi maibenta yung buhay na manok, dinidress siya at fini-freeze, at nilalagay sa cold storage. Wala ngayong pagkakataon na magawa yung intervention na yun dahil punong-puno na yung cold storage,” said Inciong.

If this happens, only the big producers will be left to fill the demand for chicken, and the supply may greatly suffer, he added.
