JAKARTA: Indonesia is set to get cracking on a plan to destroy millions of eggs in a bid to prop up slumping chicken prices, calling on poultry breeders to cut supply by either destroying them or giving them away.
Indonesia has been producing more chicken than it consumes, putting pressure on prices. But while cheap chicken may be good for consumers, it has dug its claws into the poultry industry. Dozens of firms are expected to take part in destroying the eggs, according to the Indonesia Poultry Breeding Association.In June, Indonesia gave poultry breeders a two-week period to cull about 3 million chickens to prop up plunging prices.
