Austria's egg-excess: secure local quality for the Easter days!
In the middle of the preparations for the upcoming Easter holidays, Josef Moosbrugger, President of the Austria Chamber of Agriculture, emphasizes the importance of domestic laying hens. In view of the inquiries from the USA, where eggs are to be imported from Europe, Moosbrugger emphasizes that the quality and regional care are of the greatest importance. "We have to put the domestic origin in the foreground when buying (Easter)," he explains, in order to secure the high standard of Austrian agriculture. Such efforts are not only crucial for the quality of our products, but also for long -term security of supply in the country. At the moment, the domestic market can still be sufficiently supplied with eggs, but comprehensive measures are required to maintain our self -sufficiency, Moosbrugger continues.
like Modernner-grahrt.de reported, the annual per capita consumption of eggs in 2022 was slightly three to 230 eggs. This is the lowest value in five years. Nevertheless, the level of self -care shows with 76 percent, the highest level since 1992 that significant progress has been made. However, increasing prices in retail have led to a restraint among consumers and the offer in the low -price segment was temporarily scarce. The increased export of egg products, which increased by 13 percent in 2022, also received special attention.
challenges for agriculture
Moosbrugger emphasizes that self -sufficiency is a high estate that needs to be actively designed. Agriculture is faced with a variety of challenges that range from climate -related problems to financial burdens. In order to ensure the quality of the domestic products and to strengthen the visibility of responsibility in added value, fair pricing and legal planning security are essential. "It is up to all of us to actively shape the future of agriculture and to support domestic businesses," appeals Moosbrugger.
