*In the five years through 2013, revenue for the Poultry Farming
industry in China has been growing at an average annualized rate of
7.8% to $75.8 billion. Industry revenue has been growing steadily
due to rises in poultry prices as well as output growth. Total
poultry meat output is expected to increase 3.1% to $20.5 million
tons in 2013, while revenue is set to grow 8.4%. Revenue in 2018 is
forecast to reach $106.5 billion. China is also the largest egg
producer in the world, accounting for over 40% of global
production. In the decade to 2018, industry value added is expected
to grow at annualized rate of 8.4%, similar to general economy
growth. With consolidation and the emergence of larger poultry and
egg farms, the number of farms in this industry is forecast to
continue to decline over the next five years. (*Source
