Summary
The Trump administration’s effort to import eggs to offset losses from bird flu is struggling due to logistical challenges and global supply constraints.
Many countries, including Turkey, are prioritizing domestic supply and imposing export taxes.
Experts warn that replacing U.S. egg production with imports is unrealistic, as the industry operates on a local scale.
To meet demand, the U.S. would need 70 to 100 million eggs in the next month, a goal analysts say is nearly impossible to achieve quickly.
Sell eggs to US? Who would do such a terrible thing to them?!? Trump treats every country that sells more stuff to the US as an aggressor, so why would anyone want to sell them anything? (And once eggs are no longer needed, trump would put tariffs to ruin all business that helped him out)
