They demanded the government to reduce the rates of poultry feed and machinery so that poultry could be cheaper in the country and the industry could flourish.
Speakers also urged to raise awareness about the use of eggs, especially yolks, in the diet. Eggs and poultry used to be the cheapest source of protein but now both are out of reach of the common man due to inflation, they added.
