Egg supply shortfall brought down to one million in December due to imports

PUTRAJAYA: The shortfall in egg supply in the country was reduced to just one million in December last year after the government allowed eggs to be imported as a temporary measure, says Agriculture and Food Security Minister Mohamad Sabu.

Mohamad said this was a commendable achievement compared to the critical shortage of 157 million eggs in November and 118 million eggs in October last year.
