The U.S. will import eggs from Turkey and South Korea to help lower elevated prices, according to U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins. The rise in egg prices is attributed to avian flu, which has resulted in the culling of 30 million birds and a significant reduction in supply. In response to the supply crisis, the USDA has enacted a $1 billion plan to address egg prices and enhance biosecurity measures. Rollins emphasized that these imports are temporary and will end once U.S. farmers can increase production.
