Introduction
• The poultry and egg industry is the largest contributor to the agricultural sector in South Africa. • It is the second largest consumer of maize after human consumption, and supports many peripheral businesses. • The industry is the primary supplier of quality, affordable protein to South Africans and there are over a million households engaged in some form of poultry production. • The industry had been under pressure for a number of years following a severe drought and avian flu outbreaks. • The most recent outbreak has seriously affected the operations of major poultry and egg producers, and is expected to lead to significant shortages and escalating prices. • While local demand for poultry meat has steadily increased since 2008, there has been a growing presence of cheap imports.
Outlook
• Continued margin pressure and rising input costs may result in consolidation, integration and concentration of market share. • The recovery of consumer spending is critical to the industry’s outlook. • The industry has called for tariff protection to achieve global cost competitiveness. • High electricity, fuel and feed costs and power cuts have forced some producers to close. • Major producers have warned that the avian flu outbreak will significantly affect production, supply, prices and their financial results.
