The fund deduction applied to egg exports has been raised from $0.5 to $1.5 per kilogram.

The Presidential Decision was published in the Official Gazette and came into effect. In a statement from the Ministry of Trade, attention was drawn to the goals of ensuring sustainable food supply in Turkey and meeting domestic consumption at reasonable prices for citizens. It was noted that with the regulation dated February 25, 2025, a 50-cent deduction per kilogram started to be applied to egg exports and this amount has been raised to $1.5. The statement from the Ministry is as follows; “Following the date the relevant regulation came into effect, although the application showed deflationary effects, it was observed that upward price movements continued due to the ongoing external demand for eggs originated from our country. In order to contribute to price stability in egg products and facilitate access for our citizens to the relevant product at reasonable prices, the deduction amount to be applied to egg exports has been increased from $0.5 to $1.5 per kilogram with the Presidential Decision.

– In the upcoming period, we will continue to maintain strong cooperation and coordinated efforts with all relevant stakeholders in both the public and private sector, primarily with the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry. We will continue to resolutely use all policy and control tools within our area of responsibility to protect food supply and safety, and to prevent any potential speculation in food markets.”
