Egg prices in the Dominican Republic are the lowest in the region, even when compared to large producers such as the United States and Brazil.
This was stated by the directors of the Dominican Poultry Farming Association (ADA), who emphasized that an egg costs an average of five pesos, and a large egg can cost seven or eight pesos if it is free farms.
- They indicated that a dozen eggs could cost more than five dollars in the United States, and both chicken and egg production have prices more than double that in the Dominican Republic.
The country produces 254 million eggs per month, a record figure compared to previous years.
A year and a half ago, production was 160 million monthly units and steadily increased.
