Farmers' Union in Ben Zitouna Rejects Sudden Increases in Feed Prices

The regional farmers' union in Ben Zitouna has rejected the recent and sudden increases in prices of compound feed. The increases have been set at 20 dinars for cattle and sheep feed, 30 dinars for chicken feed, and 40 dinars for turkey feed.

According to the head of the regional farmers' union, Ouard Aoudh, these new burdens threaten the extinction of small-scale breeders and the reduction of supply in local markets.

The agricultural structures are calling for immediate intervention to review production costs and provide the necessary support for the livestock and poultry sector.
