MOCA, Dominican Republic.- Poultry companies are ready for an agreement with the head of the Consumer Rights Agency and with chicken distributors, to set a price which in their view is fair for farmers and consumers.
The Presidency’s poultry advisor Victor Abreu on Tuesday said a committee of poultry farmers will meet with Consumer Agency director Altagracia Paulino to reach a definitive agreement for the price on chicken, which doesn’t jeopardize any party.
He said poultry producers will meet Wednesday with the owners of the main slaughterhouses and processing plants, to reach agreements and also ensure that the meat reaches consumers at reasonable prices. "These discussions and agreements look to address speculation and not affect any of the parties."
The announcement comes several days after Paulino warned producers and distributors that if a pound of chicken went higher than 43 pesos she will call for a one-day boycott.

Cheap Poultry is not a right!
Of course people deserve good affordable food after making their contribution to society.

Enlighten me "Fat Air"
Spare me the silliness.
I know as a liberal you only read what you want to read and that you will resort to personal insults when faced with facts.
So go enjoy the Circle Jerk with the other self-absorbed, Left wing losers here. I will continue to stand up for FREEDOM
They should boycott chicken. The government doesnt want people in the streets over high food prices so they collude to price fix. We here in the US set price floors for things like Milk otherwise why would anyone go into the dairy farming business.
Free market capitalism except when that market has a powerful special interest group.

To say that you are an extremist from the FAR FAR right wing is an insult?....same freedom that you claim for the chicken producer can be used to boycott them, when you understand that FOOD is a VITAL thing and not a luxury commodity that you can use or not, them you will understand WHY there has to be certain control on the PRICE of stuff like this, or the people will rise up and chop heads...
