LOL, cos you are handsome turtle.
SOS needs to pay and says thank-you after each session.
You will solve the food problem by becoming a vegetarian or vegan.
Chicken farmers in Johor who export to Singapore told CNA that the high cost of chicken feed has forced them to halt operations.
Mr S Caleb Rajah, who runs a farm in Kota Tinggi, said the increase in the price of chicken feed, from RM125 (S$39) for a 50kg bag to about RM150 due to inflation, means that he has been unable to make profits from his sales.
He sold about 3,000 chickens before Hari Raya and is now trying to find a way to grow chicken feed himself so that he can start rearing again.
“We can’t cover our costs, and we are losing our money. So I’ve stopped putting chickens on the farm for now,” said Mr Rajah.
Mr Joseph Siu, who operates a chicken farm near Batu Pahat and exports about 200 chickens a day to Singapore, told CNA that he is set to pause operations for now, especially with the announcement to ban exports from Jun 1.

PETALING JAYA: Insect meal, particularly those derived from black soldier fly (BSF) larvae, can be used as a supplement for chicken feed, says an adviser to a livestock association. https://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/c...n-give-chicken-extra-protein-says-trade-group
So the way i see it, once exports are prohibited, the farms will close.

Well said... instead of giving support to the industries to expand production they are doing the opposite
This is a good thing. There are too many obese mutts and minahs in muddland liao. The food shortage will force them to eat less and lose weight.

You are wrong. They will be force to eat pork and beef. More chaos. Rice intake will jump.
Malaysian hawkers also affected.
Immediate future - in the next few days, the chickens will be sent to Singapore before the ban starts on Jun 1.
Days ahead - Farmers unwilling to raise more chickens as selling price in Malaysia cannot cover their costs.

Good, then eat more vegetables. Stop all the unnecessary killings of animals. Best is to grow your own food.
But they just obsreved the ramadan fasting.
Export market was the only solution for most breeders as they get market price for the chickens. They cannot sell in local market profitably,
Than the m&ds shot themselves in the head with their economic policies
