Rising corn and soybean meal prices, combined with a 20% drop in egg output from disease pressure, are pushing layer and swine farmers toward new farmgate price increases.
The Office of Agricultural Economics has set THB 72/kg as the industry-wide cost benchmark for Q2 2026, while farmgate prices in western Thailand remain close to that level at THB 68-70/kg.
High capital costs are blocking small and medium-scale farmers from converting, as Malaysia's Perak state faces a January 2027 enforcement deadline with 42.7% of its farms still on open-house systems.
The Shariah-compliant facility from MBSB Bank will fund modern closed-house poultry houses and an egg grading facility in Kuala Linggi, Melaka, as part of a phased expansion programme.
Shrimp and pangasius led growth in the first seven months of 2026, but logistics costs, US tariff uncertainty, and competitive pressure in shrimp markets cloud the second-half outlook.
Heat stress is one of the major challenges facing modern swine production. Rising temperatures associated with climate change are increasingly exposing animals to conditions that exceed their adaptive capacity, negatively affecting growth, feed efficiency, reproductive performance, and farm profitability.
How consistent sampling, structured data analysis, and industry collaboration improve the interpretation of gut health markers.
Pigs are often exposed to pathogens and stressors in commercial production conditions.
Heat stress is one of the most consistent challenges in modern swine production. While it is often associated with peak summer temperatures, its effects begin earlier and can continue well beyond periods of obvious heat.
In modern egg production, profitability does not depend solely on the number of eggs produced. Parameters linked to egg quality, both from a physical and nutritional point of view, are becoming increasingly relevant. The weight of the egg, the quality of the albumen, the colour of the yolk or the content of fatty acids and vitamins are today attributes of great interest to the industry and to an increasingly demanding consumer.
By leveraging xylanase strategically, animal diets transcend conventional limitations, unlocking their full potential for optimal performance.
In Episode 1, we take a deep dive into China’s response to U.S. tariffs and how it’s disrupting feed-to-meat supply chains across Asia.
