Abysmal jobs numbers should spur state to protect chicken industry, says Fairplay

An organisation which aims to fight predatory trade practices and dumping says the latest unemployment statistics should act as a spur to government and to efforts to protect the chicken industry against unfair trade which has already cost thousands of jobs.

“As South Africa’s horrific unemployment rate reaches new record levels, politicians and policymakers should take an urgent look at the opportunities offered by SA’s chicken industry,” said Francois Baird, founder of FairPlay. SA’s poultry sector has recorded a jobs bloodbath in recent years and has ascribed its demise to cheap chicken imports from Brazil, the US and Europe.

However, according to the Association of Meat Importers and Exporters , although some jobs will be created in the poultry industry, tariff increases will have a net negative impact on jobs across the economy. Furthermore, it says, consumers will have to pay more for chicken should import tariffs be hiked.
