What the rates mean
- Chicken meat (retail) is what you pay at a shop for cleaned broiler meat. The beak and the gizzard's grain sac are not weighed; the cleaned liver and gizzard are weighed with the meat.
- Live chicken (retail) is the price per kg of a live bird, weighed before slaughter. About 1.4 to 1.5 kg of live weight gives 1 kg of meat, which is why the meat rate is higher.
- Wholesale is the rate shopkeepers pay at the market, and the farm-gate rate is what poultry farmers get.
- Shops must display the official rate list. Prices for boneless meat, cuts and desi chicken are not on the official list and vary by shop.
