Head of poultry association says farmers working to supply more eggs
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe head of the poultry association in Israel addresses the severe egg shortage in the country.
“Everyone is stuck in the house, and a egg can make a full meal, so the consumption is much greater than normal. We will continue to work to supply Israel’s eggs,” Motti Alkabetz tells Army Radio.
Officials have said the shortage was not caused by supply problems, but by panic buying.
The Prime Minister’s Office said Friday Israel will subsidize an emergency airlift of millions of eggs to the country ahead of the Passover festival.
