Why Italy's 2017 poultry revenues are up volumes down

摘要

Italy's poultry meat production contracted by 2.5 percent last year to 1.35 million tons. However, the industry ended the year with notably higher revenues - a reversal of the situation in 2016, when volumes were higher, but income dropped.The latest figures released by Italian poultry industry association Unaitalia reveal that, while total output contracted last year, the broiler sector performed comparatively well, recording only a minor contraction.
