Tay Ninh firms boost chicken exports to Cambodia
Businesses in the southern province of Tay Ninh have earned nearly VND1 billion (US$47,000) from their daily export of 10,000 chickens to Cambodia through auxiliary border checkpoints.
The province now has 86 chicken breeding farms, yielding a combined annual output of around 5.5 million chickens.
To ensure food safety and prevent bird flu, the province’s veterinary sector has chickens vaccinated against the A/H5N1 strain of the virus, in addition to intensifying environmental sanitation at the farms.
The price of chickens in southeastern provinces has increased to VND38,000 (US$1.78) per kilogram from VND26,000 (US$1.22) at the beginning of this year. The price enables local poultry breeders to make profits of VND4,000-5,000 a kilogram.
