We can get about 5%, 8% or 10%. It comes in different areas; some farmers in the Western, Ashanti, Brong Ahafo regions are all selling at different prices so you cannot really point to a general percentage increase. But, there\u2019s been some increase, maximum 10% so that if you used to sell it at GHC20, it moves to GHC22,\u201d Agyemang said.<\/p>\n<p>Factors<br \/>\u201c\u2026Everything that we use for poultry has increased. Talk of the feed; every now and then you see feed cost going up. If you consider the increase in the feed by feed manufacturers; you can see that every week the prices are going up and we as farmers have no option but to shift it to the sales price. Feed cost has gone up; medication has gone up even day-old chicks\u2019 prices have gone up,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt starts immediately since the increase came last Friday. So, immediately it is starting. But then it\u2019ll take time to get to the membership. Not every poultry farmer is a member of the association so it\u2019ll come in circulation then everybody will do the adjustment till we all get to uniform prices,\u201d Agyemang said.<\/p>\n<h3><strong\/><\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"peace_black_text_4\">Source: asaaseradio.com<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" style=\"clear:both\">\n<tr>\n<td><span class=\"peace_red_text_1\">Disclaimer<\/span>: <span class=\"peace_ash_text_1\">Opinions expressed here are those of the writers and do not reflect those of Peacefmonline.com.
