NECC Price Fixation Role
View Complete Answer & Explanation
Question (English)
NECC (National Egg Coordination Committee) fixes the price of:
- Broilers
- Layers
- Eggs ✓ Correct
- All the above
Explanation:
Correct Answer: Eggs
The National Egg Coordination Committee (NECC) fixes the price of eggs only. NECC is a voluntary, non-profit organization of egg producers in India that announces daily egg prices across major markets.
About NECC
- Headquartered at Hyderabad.
- It publishes daily egg prices for major markets like Hyderabad, Namakkal (Tamil Nadu), Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, etc.
- Prices of Broilers and Layers (the birds themselves) are governed by market forces and not fixed by NECC.
Why Other Options Are Wrong
- Broilers — broiler (meat) prices are determined by market demand and supply, not NECC.
- Layers — prices of layer birds are also market-determined.
- All the above — incorrect; NECC specifically deals only with egg prices.
Memory Tip
NECC = National Egg Coordination Committee → deals with Eggs only, not the birds producing them.
