# Poultry prices may climb into December as feed costs bite

> Indian poultry producers face sharply higher maize and broken-rice costs, with industry participants reporting input costs up 30–45% over the past month compared with a year earlier. Producers may reduce output rather than absorb the increases, while festive demand could push egg and chicken prices 25–30% higher by December.
