Why chicken?

Chicken is one of the most popular types of meat in the world. Not only is it widely available and very easy to prepare, you can combine it in many delicious dishes.

Chicken has long been considered a healthy alternative to red meat. And it’s low in saturated fat, contains higher amounts of omega-6 fatty acids than other animal meats, and is rich in protein and essential vitamins and minerals like B6, B12, iron, zinc and copper.
Why AGRICOLA chicken?
AGRICOLA chickens have 2 recognized virtues: quality and practical training.

In terms of quality, at AGRICOLA we produce the freshest and healthiest chicken meat every day. It’s not just for praise, but we allow ourselves to say this, because we produce all the necessary things in our household, from feeds to day-old chicks and to the careful checking of the birds by veterinarians.

The quality of AGRICOLA chickens is also certified by the validation of professional chefs from all over the world. “The most qualified jury in the world”, as the Brussels Taste Quality Testing Institute (ITQI) calls it, in 2014, 2016 and 2018 awarded The Joyful Chicken from AGRICOLA 2 gold stars and the qualification “outstanding taste”, as well as the right to wear the ITQI brand on the label for 3 years.

Why is chicken the #1 choice of athletes, exercisers, dieters?

Chicken meat is low in fat and calories and very high in protein. Athletes choose chicken because they can eat more in terms of volume and enjoy a good range of macronutrients. Chicken is very rich in protein, and 100 g of protein = 27 g of protein, which means a quarter of the recommended protein grams for a normal person.

Protein is essential for building and repairing tissue and maintaining muscle mass. Also rich in B vitamins such as niacin and vitamins B6 and B12, chicken plays a central role in energy production, DNA synthesis and brain health.
