: The subsidies for chicken breeders and chicken egg producers have been extended from October until December this year, at a rate of RM0.80 per kilogramme for chickens and RM0.08 per egg, said Datuk Seri Dr Ronald Kiandee.

“This decision was made after taking into consideration the need to maintain the ceiling price of standard chicken at the retail level at RM9.40/kg and retail ceiling prices of grades A, B and C chicken eggs at RM0.45, RM0.43 and RM0.41 each respectively in Peninsular Malaysia,” he said in a statement today.
