After the meeting on May 20, 2025, concerning the poultry production deficit in Haiti https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-44990-haiti-agriculture-working-eetting-on-the-revival-of–the-haitian-Poutry-Sect Métellus (Economy), James Monazard (Commerce) and two senior Agriculture, Paul Moïse Gabriel and Damocles Ter being, met the poultry producers on Friday June 20, 2025.
During this meeting, discussions focused on the possible solutions presented in the document proposed by the sector.
Several decisions have been adopted, including:
– the inclusion of support for the poultry sector in the formulation of the budget of the Ministry of Agriculture;
– The Ministry of Economy and Finance will provide additional resources to the sector;
– The Ministry of Commerce and Industry will encourage the consolidation of stakeholders in the poultry sector so that they can benefit from incentives;
– In addition to implementing the tax measures described in the finance law, a study was proposed to examine the rights and taxes imposed on the agricultural sector.
Participants have agreed that agricultural production in general can be one of the country’s economic development engines. To achieve this, the presidential transitional board, the government and the stakeholders in the sector have agreed to encourage domestic consumption in order to gradually reduce imports and regain food sovereignty. Note that the Haitian poultry sector currently imports almost all of its needs: eggs (more than 40 million eggs consumed per month), eggs, animal food, equipment, etc., of the Dominican Republic, the main producer of eggs and chickens in the Caribbean.
