Poultry Sector Reports Heat Wave Losses

The article concerns the Joint Professional Committee for Poultry and Rabbits Products collecting and documenting the losses suffered by the sector due to the record heatwave and power outages experienced in Tunisia during July and August 2026. This measure aims to provide accurate data to the Ministry of Agriculture to develop a plan to adjust production, including the importation of hatching eggs to compensate for production during November and December. Power outages, especially in high-production areas such as Nabeul and Zghoun, have damaged small and medium-sized poultry farms, leading to complete die-offs in some hatcheries. There are also projections of a decrease in white meat production from 16,000 tons to 11,000 tons in September, accompanied by disruptions in supply and rising prices. Additionally, the sector is relying on data provided by farmers to analyze their losses and guide future measures.
