| Summary: | <b>Aim: </b>The high share of feed costs among the costs of inputs used in
broiler breeding plays a significant role in the formation of broiler
meat price. As the production of raw materials used in the broiler
feed industry is not sufficient to meet the demand in the domestic
market, the demand is met by importation. As such, the fluctuations
in the exchange rates are reflected in the price of the final product.
The aim of this study is to analyze the relationships between the variables
of broiler meat and broiler feed price series.<p>
<b>Materials and Methods:</b> In Turkey, the relations between the variables
related to the price series of broiler meat and broiler feed in TL
and in USD between 2006 and 2018 were determined by johansen
cointegration analysis technique.<p>
<b>Results: </b>The results of the analysis indicate that the broiler feed and
broiler meat prices in Turkey are cointegrated in the short-term and
follow each other's pattern. It was found that the change in the prices
of feed had an effect on the TRY-denominated prices of poultry meat
in two months and USD-denominated prices of poultry meat in one
month.<p>
<b>Conclusion: </b>Consequently, broiler meat prices should be set taking
into account the costs of inputs in the short-term. However, since
the fluctuations in the USD exchange rate affect the input prices immediately,
an effective price mechanism for broiler prices cannot be
developed. |
