Mr. Attiqur Rehaman, lecturer, presented the results of
second project titled “Factors affecting price determination of broiler meat.”
The study found that demand and supply is the main factor in price fluctuation
while no role of giant companies and political forces was found in this matter.
It was recommended that an awareness campaign at large should be run to reduce
these misconceptions. Ms. Rukhsana David lauded the performance of UVAS in
solving poultry industry issues and conducting market research projects to
overcome misconception in the mind of general public about the poultry meat.
