Even with the rise in live chicken prices in March, São Paulo poultry farmers lost purchasing power compared to corn

Despite the rise in live chicken prices in March, the purchasing power of São Paulo poultry farmers fell compared to corn, as indicated by surveys by Cepea.

This is because, according to the Research Center, the cereal appreciated more intensely during the period. In relation to soybean meal, the situation improved for poultry producers.

In the live broiler chicken market, data from Cepea show that prices reacted in March, influenced by the increase in domestic and foreign demand.

In the state of São Paulo, the animal's average was R$ 5.51/kg, an increase of 2.7% over the previous month.
