Understanding Major Cost Centre:

Chicken meat and eggs are one of the most easily available, abundant and cheap
sources of protein that can be made available to the masses, especially in tough
economic situation the citizens of Pakistan would need cheap supply of meat and
eggs. The following table shows major costs centres in the production of the
chicken by the farmers.

The table above clearly shows that feed is the major cost centre which is
around 69.7% of the entire cost of production. The cost of production varies
according to the variation in the cost of the feed in the industry.
