In June, broiler prices varied heterogeneously, as market conditions continued to improve following a quiet winter (HPAI). The price decline compared to 2023 and low inflation are stimulating demand, particularly for processed products and in the foodservice sector. Global growth is expected to reach 2% in 2024, driven by emerging markets, while slow growth is anticipated in the EU and USA.

BROILER CHICKEN PRICE OVERVIEW – EUROPE
As summer approaches, synonymous with a decrease in demand, chicken prices remain stable and slightly increase. Despite the strong recovery in production in the first half of 2024, prices remain relatively high due to sustained demand. EU imports increased significantly in April (+28%), mainly from Ukraine and the United Kingdom. The second quarter of 2024 marks the return of EU exports to Asia and Africa after two years of decline due to inflation and HPAI.


BROILER CHICKEN PRICE OVERVIEW – USA
In June, HPAI outbreaks reached its lowest level since the beginning of the year, primarily affecting turkey farms. Chicken production decreased by 1% year-on-year in May. As the holidays approach, demand for chicken breasts remains light. Prices for wings and thighs remain stable. Heat and humid weather have some effect on bird sizes, affecting the supply of heavy broilers. Chicken exports continued to decline in May (-14%) with significant decreases to China (-73%), Taiwan (-60%), and the Philippines (-30%).

BROILER CHICKEN PRICE OVERVIEW – BRAZIL
In late June, demand drove prices up after a downward trend since the beginning of the year. Production losses in Rio Grande do Sul impacted supply, boosting demand for live chickens in neighboring states. For farmers, profitability remains balanced. The broiler chick market has been trending upwards since late May. Industry players expect positive margins to continue in the S2 2024 due to favorable feed prices and dynamic demand, particularly in exports. In June, exports fell by 2.5% due to a decline in sales to China (-22%) and Japan (-23%.


BROILER CHICKEN PRICE OVERVIEW – CHINA
In June, chicken prices continued to decline due to decreased demand and high supply. The supply of white-feathered chicken is expected to decrease in S2, which would support a price recovery. Parent stock saw a slight decline in June (-0.6%). For yellow chicken, the limited supply supported prices in June. The currently low breeder flock stock is likely to keep prices high in the S2 2024. Tensions over chicken paws supplies persisted in June due to an 83% decrease in imports from the USA (HPAI), which was not compensated by other countries.
