Poultry farming is one of the most dynamic agricultural sectors in Romania. Currently, the production activity in the poultry sector registers a downward trend at national and European level, however, Romania is among the main member countries of the European Union producing eggs for consumption, this being influenced by the growing demand for these products. In recent years, there has been an increase in sales of packaged eggs, which are supported by the growing number of producers operating in the industrial system, thus highlighting a highly fragmented market. However, domestic production of eggs for the market cannot meet the needs of consumers, so the presence of imported eggs is necessary. This paper analyzes the evolution of egg production and consumption at the national level, in the period 2016- 2020. Thus, based on statistical data, indicators such as: average, standard deviation, coefficient of variation and annual growth rate were calculated and analyzed, thus highlighting the evolutionary trends that took place during this period and the main factors that influenced domestic production. and egg consumption. |
