• Rising feed costs, animal health risks, productivity pressures, and limited access to finance are among the challenges facing poultry farmers and livestock producers as they seek to meet growing demand for animal protein across Africa.

• The challenges will take centre stage at VIV Africa 2026, which brings together producers, investors, technology providers, policymakers and other players in the feed-to-food value chain in Kigali.

• The fifth edition of the international agrifood trade show will take place on October 7–8 at the Kigali Convention Centre, preceded by a Leadership Conference on October 6.

• In #Rwanda, layer feed prices have more than doubled from Rwf345 per kilogramme in 2019 to Rwf780 currently, while feed accounts for up to 70% of poultry production costs.

• Rwanda Poultry Industry Association chairperson Jean de Dieu Hakizimana said farmers also face fluctuating chicken prices and shortages of key raw materials such as maize and soybean.

• VIV Africa will showcase innovations in feed formulation, ingredients, nutrition, farm production, animal health, processing and food engineering that could help producers improve efficiency and reduce costs.

• About 150 exhibitors are expected to participate across five key areas: farm production, feed ingredients and additives, feed and grain technology, processing, and animal health.
