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.

The farms are mechanised and automated. The cost of a chicken for a large established institution is some electricity, 15-20 kg of feed and very little labor. The feed is mostly grain byproducts that aren’t good for much else.
