Indonesian layer farmers, through the National Layer Farmers Association (PPN), warn of possible egg shortages over the Christmas, New Year and Eid al-Fitr holidays. Feed corn has reached USD 0.43-0.44/kg while farm-gate egg prices remain at USD 1.07-1.10/kg, producing losses.
Layer day-old chick prices have fallen to USD 0.16-0.22 from USD 0.49-0.77 as farmers cut back on restocking.
Feed corn costs squeezing layer margins can reduce flock replacement and future egg output, while weaker chick demand signals fewer birds being reared, a bearish sign for corn feed demand in Indonesia over time.
