And how to deal with the increase in prices, he said: what is clear based on the numbers, the payment of 4200 Tomans, will definitely have a great impact on the price of basic goods such as meat, poultry, eggs and dairy products, etc. and at least with a thumb account We find that this effect is at least above 70%.
A member of the board of directors of the Union of Importers of Livestock and Poultry Inputs of Iran continued: Reports confirm that corn is exchanged in the open market at a price between 2500 to 3000 Tomans, according to farmers and poultry farmers 20% of their needs from the open market and 80% from quotas It is provided by the government at the rate of 1700 Tomans, however, the cost price of each kilo of slaughtered chicken is more than 20 thousand Tomans per kilo for poultry farmers.
Tayba Tayba stated: Now, if corn is imported with a currency of 20,000 Tomans, taking into account the current world prices of $ 300 per ton of corn, the sale of each kilogram of corn to the producer will be at least 8,000 Tomans.
