The explosion of fodder prices resulted in tragic fate for tens of thousands of ducklings in two Hungarian counties as entrepreneurs raising ducks denied to receive them despite having ordered them weeks before.
A total of 70,000 ducklings were destroyed in Csongrád and Bács-Kiskun counties (eastern Hungary) in the first two months of this year as the baby animals were refused by farmers who had ordered them but eventually denied to receive them, the eastern Hungarian newspaper Hajdú-bihari Napló reports.
According to the paper, the farmers denied the take-over of the baby animals as fodder prices had rocketed in the meantime and raising the animals could only be possible with a considerable deficit.
One reason for rocketing fodder prices is the extreme weather conditions including inland water while forestalling prices remained low.
László Bárány, president of the Poultry Product Council in Hungary warns that poultry prices may considerably be higher this spring.
