A member of Cairo’s butchers’ association warned that meat prices could rise, citing higher prices for imported feed and recent exchange-rate changes. He said Egypt relies heavily on imported corn and soybeans for livestock feed and called for lower import duties, stronger market oversight, and reopening closed feed mills.
More expensive imported feed raises livestock production costs and could push meat prices higher if producers pass those costs on. Currency weakness can also increase the local-currency cost of imported corn and soybeans.
