Japan: Poultry and Products Annual
Japanese domestic broiler production is forecast to reach a new record-high in 2017 on lower input costs and higher farm gate prices. Strong broiler consumption growth in food service and ready-to-eat foods is anticipated to drive imports up in 2017 though market saturation and cross-commodity competition may have a dampening effect in 2018. Production is forecast to remain flat in 2018 as year-end stocks decrease slightly to offset reduced imports.
