Zimbabwe's poultry feed production dominated the stockfeed industry in Q2 2017, averaging 22,473 tonnes monthly, though output fell 25% in quantity versus the prior year. Raw material prices were mostly flat versus Q1, with meat and bone meal up 11% and fishmeal up 8%.
Falling feed output signals weaker local demand for protein meals and grains, while higher MBM and fishmeal prices point to tighter supply of those protein ingredients. The effect on world prices is limited given Zimbabwe's small scale.
