A Kolkata-based chamber of commerce, the Merchants' Chamber of Commerce and Industry, wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday asking him to intervene in recurring shortages and price volatility of maize and other feed used by India's poultry sector. The chamber called the problem structural and said it needs coordinated action by the Centre and state governments on supply constraints.
Tight Indian maize supply raises feed costs for poultry and could increase import demand, supporting corn prices and related feed ingredients. Policy action such as import duty changes would directly affect the balance of supply.
