Indian poultry associations, meeting in Hyderabad, asked for duty-free imports of non-GMO maize and the release of unfit FCI foodgrains for poultry feed. They cited rising feed costs in an El Niño year and depressed chicken prices.
Breeders agreed to work toward a baseline live-chicken price of ₹110 per kg.
Duty-free maize imports would ease feed costs and add to India's maize import demand, which is supportive for corn prices. The industry attributes the chicken price dip to seasonal festival-period demand, so the price impact is likely to be temporary.
After 318 past bullish policy events, Corn moved a median -0.1% over 5 sessions (48% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.5%), and -0.2% over 20.
