Despite the war and economic challenges, Ukraine remains one of Europe’s leading egg producers — according to a report by Petro Pyvovar and Oleksandr Rozhkov from Polissya National University for Kyiv School of Economics, developed within the Eurointegration 1.0 initiative.
The production of chicken eggs is a key segment of Ukraine’s agricultural sector, supporting both domestic demand and export opportunities. Eggs are an affordable source of protein and a staple food item.
Before the war, Ukraine produced up to 19.6 billion eggs annually. In 2023, production dropped to 11.4 billion — the lowest level in 20 years — due to the war and the loss of facilities in the eastern and southern regions.
Production has since shifted to central and western regions, including Vinnytsia, Khmelnytskyi, Kyiv, and Lviv oblasts.
While household farms play a role, large agricultural enterprises provide the bulk of the commercial supply.
Feed accounts for up to 80% of production costs.
Although exports have declined, a shift toward EU markets is helping to offset losses.
Industry leaders include vertically integrated companies such as Yasensvit and AVANGARDCO, several of which rank among the top 30 egg producers in Europe.
