The Trump administration is importing eggs from Türkiye and South Korea to address shortages and record-high prices caused by a severe bird flu outbreak.
Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins confirmed that these imports have begun and that discussions with other countries are ongoing to secure additional supplies.
The avian flu has led to the culling of approximately 30 million birds in the United States, significantly reducing the domestic egg supply. Consequently, egg prices have surged, with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) forecasting a 41% increase in 2025 compared to 2024.
Rollins emphasized that the egg imports are a temporary measure. She anticipates that as U.S. poultry populations recover and egg production normalizes in the coming months, reliance on foreign eggs will decrease.
In addition to importing eggs, the USDA is exploring other strategies to stabilize the market, including enhancing biosecurity measures and considering vaccinations for poultry to prevent future outbreaks.
Consumers have felt the impact of these shortages and price hikes, with some seeking alternative sources for eggs, including attempting to purchase them from Mexico. However, such actions have led to confiscations and fines, as importing raw eggs from Mexico into the U.S. is prohibited due to health concerns.
The administration's multifaceted approach aims to alleviate the current crisis and ensure a stable egg supply for American consumers in the near future.
