Crisis Hits Nigerian Maize Supply, To Affect Poultry Production Negatively by AnonPoet: 4:49pm On Feb 08, 2021
For over a year now, there has been a critical imbalance in the demand and supply of maize in Nigeria. The shortfall in supply of maize in the country has led to the price of a ton of maize shooting from N80, 000 in January 2020 to over the current market price of N200,000.00.
The spiralling cost of maize is a ticking bomb that will most likely have a negative impact on the wider economy. As an essential component of feed production, the poultry farmers face a looming crisis. Eggs that was once was the cheapest source of protein has gone as high as N70. The continuous increase in the price of this single crop is beginning to adversely affect the food value chain in Nigeria. Farmer.
Many rural households in the north will be unable to afford a balanced diet if the price hikes continue. If the sharp rise in price is allowed to persist could result in a dire situation for the country in the near future.

Watch the Director-General of the Poultry Association of Nigeria (PAN), speak on the root cause of the maize shortfall and what needs to be done to mitigate the impending crisis.

Maize scarcity?
This spells trouble especially for Northerners. Maize is a major food in d North. Eaten as "tuwon masara". It use to be the cheapest food for d common man. Now it's competing in price with beans.

Poultry feed that's already N5300-5500 will shoot up to N7000.
A major cause of this is security. A friend's neighbor planted maize last year lost his yield overnight as theives went with their truck and harvested it through d night.

Our only hope is in God. Looking upto man is disaster.

A very good business to invest in, right now.

There is even nothing, in Nigeria, that the price has not increased.

The insecurity is the 1000% reason behind this disaster. May posterity never place blame on the present leadership of this nation, this I pray even though it's obvious...


It is well...

Fulani herdsmen attack and kill farmers.... Farmers cant go to their farms... Farmers move out of their lands, if they are alive that is. Fulani herdsmen move in and set up militia posts. Farms are untended and overgrown with weeds.

And Nigerians act as if we dont know what caused the lack of maize? undecided
