Sri Lanka's chicken and egg prices are already at high levels due to the high price of domestically produced maize, which is the main feed ingredient for the poultry industry.
The island is estimated to need about 15,000 tonnes of maize a month for animal feed according to one report. The bulk of the domestic production comes during the main cultivation season which was caught in floods.
Sri Lanka put many poultry farmers out of business with a combination of high maize prices and price controls, later resulting in rocketing prices of eggs and chicken.
