European Poultry Price Index by Country

The 2024 European Poultry Price Index shows Hungary and Poland leading with values of 49.22 and 47.94, respectively, signaling strong gains. Lithuania and Slovakia also report significant indices around 36. Belgium, Italy, and the Netherlands maintain values in the low 30s. In contrast, Sweden and Ireland have very low indices at 4.92 and 4.67, with Luxembourg at the bottom with 2.57. This reflects varied market conditions and pricing dynamics across Europe. The lack of variation suggests a relatively stable competitive landscape over the past few years.

Looking ahead, trends to watch include potential shifts in supply and demand, the impact of economic conditions on consumer spending, and evolving trade policies affecting poultry imports and exports. Sustainability initiatives and consumer preferences for organic or free-range poultry could also influence pricing and market position across different countries.
