The Iranian people should face both scarcities of their basic needs and their skyrocketing prices. Yet, government officials try to demonstrate they have the situation under control and bogusly claim they are moving forward despite \u201csanctions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u201cWhile the maximum approved price of poultry, per kilogram, is 20,400 Tomans. According to the announcement of the Breeders Association, the price of this product is 23 to 24 thousand Tomans based on production costs; as a result of the officials\u2019 incompetence, and lack of support for production, the price of poultry has reached 40,000 Tomans,\u201d <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tasnimnews.com\/fa\/news\/1400\/01\/05\/2474748\/%D8%B9%D9%84%D8%AA-%D9%85%D8%B1%D8%BA-40-%D9%87%D8%B2%D8%A7%D8%B1-%D8%AA%D9%88%D9%85%D8%A7%D9%86%DB%8C-%D8%A8%DB%8C-%DA%A9%D9%81%D8%A7%DB%8C%D8%AA%DB%8C-%D9%85%D8%B3%D8%A6%D9%88%D9%84%D8%A7%D9%86-%D8%A7%D8%B3%D8%AA\" rel=\"noopener\">wrote<\/a> the state-run Tasnim news agency on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u201cDespite these problems, Minister of Agriculture Jihad recently announced we had performed well in terms of production of chicken and eggs!

The poultry [which is supposed to be sold at] 20,400 tomans is being sold at 40,000 tomans. There are long queues in front of markets and shops that distribute poultry at the [adopted] price. While 1,000 tons of fresh chicken and 1,000 tons of frozen chicken were to be distributed daily to meet the needs of Tehran province\u2019s 1,700-ton need, Rahmati, the Chamber of Trade inspector Unions, said that a total of 90 tons of poultry has arrived for Tehran. This should be distributed in Tehran and other cities of the province,\u201d Tasnim wrote.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Thus, Tasnim underlines that people have to \u201cpurchase poultry at high prices and face its shortage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">In addition to poultry, Iranians are also unable to purchase fruit and other basic needs. In other words, Iranians welcomed the Persian New Year (Nowruz) on Sunday with empty tables.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u201cThere was a 20 to 30 percent drop in demand for fruit in the market on New Year\u2019s Eve.

Really, how long do people have to stand in long queues for hours so that maybe it will be their turn to get poultry, not at a reasonable price, but at a price several times higher than the price they bought a month ago?
