To address a sharp increase in domestic egg prices and a local shortage in Russia, Rosselkhoznadzor has facilitated the import of over 42 million edible chicken eggs from Azerbaijan and Turkey, with Azerbaijan supplying the majority. This move, complemented by imports from Belarus and Kazakhstan, is part of a duty-free import policy endorsed by the Russian government and the Ministry of Agriculture.
