The poultry sector in Bangladesh is forecasted to follow this growth path as well. Per capita annual
consumption levels for poultry meat and eggs are expected to increase with respectively 26% and 41%
in the coming five years. Adding the estimated population growth (CARG 1.2%) to the expected
consumption growth rates results in a total estimated poultry meat sector growth of 34% and 49% in
the Bangladeshi layer sector.
