The price of broiler chicken has suddenly gone up all over the country including the capital. Traders say prices have risen due to high demand on the occasion of the thirty-fast.
On Saturday (January 01, 2022) a few markets including Karwan Bazar, Palashi Bazar, Hatirpul of the capital were visited. Broiler chickens were being sold at retail at Tk 200 per kg. Golden chicken is being sold at Tk 270 to 300 per kg. But a week ago, the price of broiler chicken was Tk 170 to 180 per kg.
Mohammad Abul Basar, owner of Sabuj Poultry Farm in Hatirpul Bazar of the capital, said on Saturday that the demand for chickens at the farm was high during the Christian New Year.
