The Farmers Broiler Rearers Employees Association submitted a petition at the Collectorate against private poultry companies for indulging in unfair practices. They had pointed out that in the last two years, due to the increase in the prices of inputs like coconut manjhi, curry eggs, increase in wages of labourers, unregulated minimum stock of private poultry companies and shelf rate, poor quality of feed, etc., the farmers had suffered the most.
