Egg supply is estimated to have two or three months of local egg yield recovery before stabilizing

In the face of the expensive price of imported eggs in Australia, Chen Jizhong explained that Taiwan mainly imported eggs from Japan and the United States, but because the avian influenza of the two countries was serious, it was imported from Australia.
He said that the Agricultural Committee did not consider importing from Vietnam, India and other countries because local chickens only had vaccines and did not meet the quarantine regulations.
