Top Egg Importing And Exporting Countries
Germany
Germany holds the tenth spot in worldwide egg production, with about 0.89 billion kilograms of unprocessed, shell hen's eggs produced annually. Germany has been the leading proponent in the EU for egg labeling that meets the standards of the EU Commission. Another German first was the inoculation of young hens against salmonella for disease-free eggs. Hygiene coding for eggs was also a German first, and one that assures the buyer of purchasing a safe product.
France
France is in ninth place in egg production, at about 0.94 billion kilograms of unprocessed, shell hen's eggs produced annually. Nonetheless, there remains an egg problem with the EU Commission, as French farmers blame the commission for the lack of regulation against falling egg prices. This debacle has also affected neighboring Belgium's egg production. One cause was said to be the effects of an EU directive for more humane treatment of laying chickens.
Turkey
Turkey comes in eighth in egg production, at 1.03 billion kilograms of unprocessed, shell hen's eggs produced annually. Its egg production facilities and egg quality pass the European Union poultry industry standards. Its egg producers belong to the International Egg Commission as well.

The most commonly consumed eggs are chicken eggs. Other poultry eggs including those of duck and quail also are eaten. Fish eggs are called roe and caviar. Egg yolks and whole eggs store significant amounts of protein and choline and are widely used in cookery. Due to their protein content, the United States Department of Agriculture formerly categorized eggs as Meats within the Food Guide Pyramid. Despite the nutritional value of eggs, there are some potential health issues arising from cholesterol content, salmonella contamination, and allergy to egg proteins. Chickens and other egg-laying creatures are kept widely throughout the world and mass production of chicken eggs is a global industry. In 2009, an estimated 62.1 million metric tons of eggs were produced worldwide from a total laying flock of approximately 6.4 billion hens. There are issues of regional variation in demand and expectation, as well as current debates concerning methods of mass production. In 2012, the European Union banned the battery husbandry of chickens.
Eggs, an important source of protein in the diet, are used in their natural state and to produce food additives that are in turn used to prepare other food items. Given their key role in food production, the fact that they are a major export item comes as no surprise. To be exported, eggs require special packaging that prevents them from breaking and keeps them free of damaging bacteria. Lots of countries participate in the egg export market. The following list takes a look at the top exporters in the world.
The global egg market is expected to grow from 213.13 billion dollars in 2020 to 227.39 billion dollars in 2021 at a compound annual growth rate of 6.7 percent. The growth is mainly due to the companies rearranging their operations and recovering from the COVID 19 impact, which had earlier led to restrictive containment measures involving social distancing, remote working, and the closure of commercial activities that resulted in operational challenges. The market is expected to reach 297.47 billion dollars in 2025 at a CAGR of 7 percent
The eggs market consists of the sale of raw eggs by entities like organizations, sole traders, and partnerships that produce raw eggs, including poultry farms and other entities which breed, hatch, or raise hens and other birds. The market size in this market is valued at farm gate prices. The egg market includes eggs from hens, ducks, geese, quails, and other birds. This market excludes sales of bird meat and processed eggs. This market also excludes the proceeds from the captive consumption of the eggs for further processing. The eggs market is segmented into hens and other birds.
The Asia Pacific was the largest region in the global egg market, accounting for 64 percent of the market in 2020. North America was the second largest region accounting for 14 percent of the global egg market. The Middle East was the smallest region in the global egg market.
Immune modulators are being increasingly used in animal production as they enable producers to move towards antibiotic-free animal agriculture. Immune modulators are a class of drugs that activate or boost an animal's immune system to better control the development of diseases in animals and their transmission to humans.
Companies involved in this industry often use antibiotics for growth promotion and therapeutic reasons. However, due to the pressure from consumer groups and rights activists, these companies are turning towards these modulators which protect consumers' health. According to a report by Pew Charitable Trusts, Immune modulators are effective against a broad range of pathogens as they energize the immunity system in a way that is less dependent on the pathogen causing infection.
