Thai chicken exports exported to grow in 2024 - GAIN
USDA post expects 3% growth over 2023Thailand's 2024 chicken meat exports are expected to grow 3% relative to 2023, according to a recent US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Global Agricultural Information Network (GAIN) report.
Growth will likely be due to the expected recovery in exports of cooked chicken meat that will likely offset the reduced exports of uncooked chicken meat.
Uncooked chicken meat exports are expected to decline significantly as Brazil’s broiler production recovers from the 2023 HPAI outbreak.
Japan’s imports of Brazilian uncooked chicken products will likely bounce back due to more competitive prices than Thailand’s uncooked chicken meat. The USDA post projects Thailand’s 2024 uncooked chicken meat exports will return to the typical 30-35% share of total chicken meat exports.
