As part of the measures taken, the ministries announced today (Sunday) the expansion of import quotas that are exempt from tariffs, alongside the launch of the &#8220;Full Shelves&#8221; procedure aimed at ensuring that supermarket shelves remain stocked without raising prices for consumers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About 40 Million Eggs Have Already Been Imported<\/strong><br \/>\nAs in every year, the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security has opened a tariff-free quota for importing 105 million eggs to meet the increase in demand from January to April. So far, about 40 million eggs have already been imported, and the ministries continue to monitor the market to complete the supply. This year, the challenge is more significant due to the widespread outbreak of avian influenza in the U.S. and Europe, which has led to a global price increase, but officials clarify that no shortages are expected.<\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_17224\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17224\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/reganews.co.il\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/eggs-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reganews.co.il\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/eggs-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/reganews.co.il\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/eggs-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/reganews.co.il\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/eggs-2-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-17224\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Egg cartons | Photo: Nati Shohat\/FLASH90<br \/><\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<strong>Prices Will Not Increase<\/strong><br \/>\nThe &#8220;Full Shelves&#8221; procedure that has been activated will allow importers to continue bringing in additional shipments until the eve of the holiday, in order to prevent a shortage of eggs and maintain the regulated prices unchanged.
