EU poultry sector to lose SA market
Poultry exports from the European Union to South Africa may decrease fast, as local producers are asking for a new tax on imported products. The National Chamber of Poultry and Poultry Producers submitted a request for an increase in customs duties. According to the request, the average load on imported poultry meat is to increase by as much as 82%.
