LAHORE: The price of chicken in Punjab has dropped significantly in the market by Rs. 78 per kilogram in Punjab effective May 7, 2024.

Previously, the price of chicken in the market was Rs 548 per kg which is now Rs. 470 per kg.

Live broiler chicken from a farm is currently priced at Rs. 300 per kilogram, down from Rs. 350. Similarly, the price per dozen eggs has remained constant at Rs. 254 and Rs. 7,500 for a complete crate containing approximately 350 eggs.

Lower poultry costs could provide customers with more affordable options and less financial burden. It’s still unclear, though, if merchants will implement the new prices.

Local vendors have a habit of quoting higher rates than government prices and the consumer has no choice but to pay.
