# Price increase and deficiency of hatching egg may reduce meat production in Russia

> Russian poultry producers are buying hatching eggs abroad due to a domestic shortage, and prices nearly doubled from 16-17 rubles in September 2020 to 30 rubles in February. Higher feed and lysine prices are also cited, and factories providing about 20% of Russian poultry meat may cut output.
