Abstract

The article presents changes of the main input-output prices in the Hungarian broiler industry over a period of 30 years, and associated correlations. For the processing of long-term data, a linear regression function, correlation and regression analysis were used. The cereal prices correlate and their changes also correspond with a change in compound feed prices. A close correlation can be found between cereal price and broiler price, whilst the correlation shown between the compound feed price and broiler price is very close. During the examined period, the feed prices increased at a higher rate than the broiler price. It was also established that the current feed and energy price significantly affect day-old chick prices which corresponds with an increase in price of the broiler. Furthermore, a close relation can be found between energy and feed compound prices.
