Agriculture Ministry seeking other sources for layer hens; talking with hoteliers, bakers about using liquid eggs to mitigate table egg shortage

The Agriculture Ministry is actively seeking solutions to the diminished number of layer birds available as it moves to boost the country’s table egg production levels.

Inconsistent egg supply has been a sore point for many consumers, especially since the passage of Hurricane Beryl last year.

The storm had a devastating impact on the number of layer hens, and it has been difficult to increase the figures since then.

Earlier this month, one popular supermarket in St. Ann noted that reduction levels moved from 50 cases or 30 dozen eggs each week to only 10 cases weekly.

Last week, Portfolio Minister Floyd Green told IRIE FM News that a meeting had been scheduled with representatives at his Ministry to determine the best route to address the nation’s egg shortage.

Providing an update on that meeting, Mr. Green said following discussions with the Ministry’s Egg Production Committee, it is projected that Jamaica will continue to experience a shortage of table eggs.

He explained that the projection has triggered an urgent response, especially since the demand for eggs is likely to increase in the upcoming Christmas period.

Mr. Green said the Ministry is examining ways to increase the number of layer hens and stabilize egg supply.

The Agriculture Minister also indicated that discussions are being held with hoteliers and bakers regarding their increased use of liquid eggs as part of efforts to mitigate the table egg shortage for regular customers.
