World Egg Day: The poultry sector receives special attention
In Hungary, 550 commodity-producing farms currently produce eggs, which produced around 2.4 billion eggs in 2022 – Agriculture Minister István Nagy summarized the data of the poultry farms on Friday in Budaörs, at the professional conference organized on the occasion of the World Egg Day, according to the announcement of the Ministry of Agriculture (AM).
The head of the ministry emphasized that nowadays we have to face the fact that people living today do not accept large-scale animal husbandry, in connection with which a “false romance” prevailed, which is very difficult to overcome. However, it can be demonstrated with scientific research that a high degree of comfort can be provided with animal welfare. He added that for this very reason, a united response to the problem must be given from the side of science, breeding and feeding, as people cannot be deprived of the highest quality protein.
According to the information, István Nagy highlighted that it is a significant step forward from a food safety point of view that consumers can now choose domestically produced goods based on the clearly visible designation of origin indicating Hungarian origin. A short supply chain is in everyone’s interest, as it results in safe and sustainable supply.
