In 2020, the Philippines saw a nearly 4% increase in chicken egg production, reaching 605,786.16 mt (12.721 billion pieces) due to swine farmers shifting to egg production following the African Swine Fever outbreak. This surge led to a decrease in egg prices toward the end of the year. As of January 1, 2021, the chicken layer population grew by 4.19% to a record 42.928 million birds.

The Meat Importers and Traders Association of the Philippines is advocating for zonal bans instead of complete bans on poultry imports from bird flu-free zones.
