Poultry farms in Niger, Kogi and Nasarawa States are contracting as feed, which makes up 70 to 80 per cent of costs, has roughly doubled in price over the past year. Farmers are cutting flocks, selling at a loss or closing.
Feed prices have risen with naira depreciation and fuel-driven transport costs.
Shrinking flocks reduce domestic egg and meat supply in Nigeria, which tends to lift local poultry prices. Higher maize and soy input costs also squeeze feed-buyer margins across the sector.
