The government of Yilan County stated that Yilan is not a major producer of eggs, and only produces 40,000 to 45,000 eggs per day. If calculated on the basis of 1 egg per person per day, Yilan needs nearly 450,000 eggs per day, and most of them are still supplemented by outsiders in the county. , Facing the shortage, there have been no complaints about stockpiling or price gouging, and we call on the central government to adjust the egg quantity as soon as possible.
