Poultry farming is no longer the adventurous profession it was at the beginning of the 20th century, and egg production, which requires considerable intellectual and financial investment, has become a major industry. This modern industry has enabled the production of egg products to develop, often initiated by poultry farmers looking for products with higher added value than the banal shell egg.
What was once the egg-breaking industry is now an industrial activity employing the most advanced technologies in biochemistry, refrigeration, physics and mechanics to invent, develop, manufacture, preserve and distribute new egg presentations and products derived from fertile, promising innovation.
All over the world, a powerful industry produces eggs and transforms a growing proportion of them into egg products.
France, European leader in poultry breeding, uses the most advanced techniques and equipment and has developed the world's most efficient machines and processes to increase productivity, lower costs and improve the quality of egg products.
This trend towards the development of poultry farming and the use of egg products is set to accelerate in Eastern Europe, throughout Asia, South America and Africa, because people need to be better fed, and eggs offer undeniable nutritional and economic advantages.
These countries would do well to draw inspiration from the achievements described in this article and the experience gained, so as to avoid failure and not reinvent the wheel.
