Japfa Comfeed decentralizes to lift market access

摘要

There are a few factors that have led to a positive trend in Indonesia's poultry industry. Despite having to deal with new outbreaks of Avian influenza on a regular basis, the industry has come to grips with it. Plus, the government's initiatives in educating consumers on the do's and don't and to cook poultry products well has paid off. As a result, consumption does not plunge drastically anymore when a new outbreak or human fatality is announced. Indonesian integrators practice vaccination and this renders commercial flocks safe. In addition to this, in mid 2007, the government withdrew the 10% tax on processed products thus making processed chicken more affordable.
