In the future, it is expected to drive the growth of egg consumption and the overall expansion of laying hens industry with the gradual in-depth development of the concept of national healthy diet and the continuous promotion of urbanization. With the continuous development of deep processing and branding of downstream eggs and the continuous promotion of the large-scale trend of commercial layer breeding, the concentration of commercial layer industry is expected to continue to improve. For downstream large-scale egg enterprises, it is very important to obtain high-quality and stable chicken seedling supply under the background of continuous expansion of production capacity and national layout. Therefore, the head egg breeder enterprises with national layout are expected to fully benefit from their dual competitive advantages in production and sales.
