American authorities have turned to Swedish and Danish egg producers and asked about the possibility of buying eggs, reports Danish media and Göteborgs-Posten.

It indicates that there is a large shortage and that they have had very great challenges with many animals being slaughtered, says Kronägg's CEO Markus Lindström, who received a request from the USA, to GP.

The industry organization Swedish Eggs was also contacted a couple of weeks ago.

The egg shortage in the USA is due to bird flu. Over 40 million animals were put down last year and prices have been driven up, which has created a political debate. Among other things, President Donald Trump blamed egg prices on former President Joe Biden in his speech to Congress.

Whether any eggs will be exported is uncertain. Among other things, a number of export requirements stand in the way at present, according to the industry association Danish Eggs.

Besides the export requirements, it is complicated to transport eggs across the Atlantic, and there are also challenges in Europe, according to Markus Lindström.
