A layer farmer in Subang, Indonesia, brought forward hen culling from about 90 weeks to 60 weeks after going a month without corn. He could not access subsidized corn through the government program, and market corn prices were above his farm-gate egg prices relative to production costs; he has been using alternative feed ingredients, including soybean meal.
Corn scarcity and limited access to subsidized supplies raise feed costs and can encourage earlier culling, reducing layer capacity. This supports local corn prices and adds risk to egg supply.
