Recently, a crisis arose in Russia regarding the supply of chicken eggs. Prices for this product have risen sharply, causing concern among consumers and manufacturers. Agricultural and economic experts are discussing various ways to solve this problem.

One of the proposed solutions is to increase the capacity of poultry farms to process table eggs. This will make it possible to process surplus eggs into products that can be used in the confectionery industry, fat-and-oil industry, and public catering in the form of various types of dry powders, liquid and frozen eggs. This approach will reduce losses and increase the efficiency of using egg raw materials.

However, government support is required to implement such a solution. The profitability of egg production in Russia is low, and not all enterprises can afford to invest in processing facilities. Government support can be in the form of subsidies, preferential loans or tax breaks.

In addition, the capabilities of poultry farms were affected by the high rate of the Bank of Russia. Because of this, it has become more difficult for enterprises to attract credit funds to develop production. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the refinancing rate, which will allow poultry farms to access cheaper loans and increase their production capacity.

Another important step is to open up the import of eggs from other countries. This will increase the supply of eggs on the market and reduce prices. The government has already approved the zeroing of customs duties on egg imports, which should lead to an increase in supplies from abroad.

Thus, solving the problem with chicken eggs in Russia requires an integrated approach, including increasing egg processing capacity, government support for poultry farms, reducing the refinancing rate and opening the import of eggs. These measures will increase the supply of eggs on the market, reduce prices and stabilize the situation.
