USA asks Sweden and Denmark for help in the egg crisis | Sweden Herald

There is an egg crisis in the USA and now the authorities are asking Swedish and Danish producers if they can export eggs across the Atlantic

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.

I don't think we will export. We also have an egg shortage in Europe and there we already have export channels we use. So it's rather that we export within Europe.

And Denmark is set to say: NO.

How to win friends and influence egg sellers, eh?

Why ask Denmark? Are they an egg producing juggernaut or something?

 

[Squarechoke]

Must be fake news since Trump promised he would fix the egg prices on day 1.

Why ask Denmark? Are they an egg producing juggernaut or something?

They have big egg producing companies, maybe that's the attraction.

They aren't in the top ten for European egg producing nations, but they do have two companies in the top ten for egg production.

Probably some thought that it will be easier to deal with individual companies.

Man, just think of how many chicken farms you could build on Greenland

Egg Off or Go Egg Yourself should be the only replies back to us . Or put a 200% tarriff on them that’s what Trump would order to do .

 

[Blunderbuss]

Lol maybe if they weren't such fucking dicks to people for the last 2 months they could ask to - shock horror - make some sort of trade... maybe a deal of sorts...

 

[Pittie Petey]

I dont want no fucking French eggs in my chorizo con huevos


Ooh, wee wee, la la


Fuck off, Pierre

Wouldn't the US have to put the tariff on to increase the price? Tariffs are generally incoming rather than outgoing.

Or do you just mean sell them to the US at a much higher price?

The second one . I’m a little hazy the Trumpers are rubbing off on me I tend to lose IQ points the longer I’m on here I might take a break collect my faculties it’s draining explaining and dealing with some on here , this happened to me like 2 days ago and I felt like I had a hangover the next day and I didn’t have one drink .

"Sweden should tariff themselves on their egg exports"



No one is buying that you're any sort of intellectual, stop trying to sell it.

Sweden and US don't depend on each other too much. Probably Sweden depends more for us on natural gas than we need anything from them. Probably not a good idea to suggest they play hardball with the US.

Selling us eggs would do nothing but benefit Sweden and Denmark.

 

[Kingz]

Egg prices are plummeting here. Down about 30 percent since Trump took office. Get a new angle

So is inflation. Gas. Mortgages

But now all the leftists care about is Wall Street and the stock market lol. You know, always for the little guy.

Sweden are saying no.

They already have established markets, they don't produce millions of excess eggs every year just in case a big country needs more.

Eggs is a fun subject nobody can really get upset about.

But doesn't the fact the US is reaching out to other countries for eggs suggest there's some fudgery going on with prices/projections? Prices probably aren't dropping sustainably if your government is reaching out to new markets. That feels like an emergency measure to make sure prices keep dropping.

There's literally no reason for this story to exist if everything's currently fine. Nobody would have even spoken to Swedish or Danish companies lol - there's not much chance they're going to help out, hence it seems desperate.

I guess thats their prerogative. We asked, they don't have it. Doesn't seem like this needs to be a bigger story.

Agreed.

In fact, it wouldn't be a big story at all if doofuses like JD Vance didn't try to use it as a means to harvest additional votes

It is so important to hold these political parties to account for the promises they made pre-election.

When they invent a scare story and promise a remedy, you should be pissed off if they don't then provide that remedy.

Probably because as prices go down. People will buy more eggs but we’re still trying to restore our egg layers after Biden’s Pollocaust at the tune of 150 million chickens. So, maybe want to avoid shortages while we replenish.

But who knows when these conversations began or happened. The egg prices only started plummeting significantly the other day. So just because it appeared on a Swedish publication today doesn’t mean they called this morning

It's fun to see how it plays out. Nobody is gonna live or die on the price of a dozen eggs.

But I just checked Walmart's website again, and they don't seem to have dropped at all.

As far as I can tell, it's the government telling people they're dropping.

But I'm not in America, so if you've popped in to your local supermarket and they're $2 cheaper, then that's good enough for me!

 

[Ballsaque]

We might have given up Greenland

But eggs, nop. 300% tariffs on that shit, hoes.

They have already said no to export eggs to US, there are also a need for eggs in Europe.
