I know economies of scale and battery farms and stuff but I can’t reasonably work out how you can hatch, raise, feed, kill prepare and ship a chicken and have it end up in a supermarket as a whole chicken for €4. Let alone the farmers and the supermarkets share. Someone please explain.

Tax money is the actual answer, in the UK specifically 78% of the profit in animal farming comes from subsidies and in other places I’ve seen figures ranging from about 40% to even over 90%. It’s so cheap to you because your taxes pay for the rest of it.
