Mianyang, Sichuan Jan 5, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - The 6th China Egg Industry Conference brought together more than 1,500 industry leaders representing 600 layer farms and their associated food supply chains. Hosted by the Beijing Egg Industry Association in partnership with leading academic institutions, media organizations and industry stakeholders, the conference highlighted advancements in global egg production and processing technologies.

The comprehensive program addressed critical industry developments, from traditional laying hen management practices to innovations in global egg processing and branded egg products. Key focus areas included technological innovation, quality control enhancement, operational efficiency, brand development, financial solutions and sustainable ecosystem development within China's egg industry.

The layer chicken farming sector has witnessed significant modernization in recent years, with operations increasingly scaling to accommodate more than 100,000 chickens per facility. These modern farms have successfully implemented comprehensive automation systems for essential operations, including feeding, water distribution, egg collection, and waste management. Advanced monitoring systems now regulate environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and air quality with precision.

Egg processing continues to play a vital role in the industry's value chain. Drawing inspiration from mature markets in the United States, Japan and Europe, China's egg processing sector is advancing to address market volatility and enhance product stability. The industry has particularly focused on non-cage-rearing systems, which have garnered significant attention across the sector over the past two years.

Following the conference sessions, attendees participated in site visits to leading regional facilities, gaining firsthand insight into cutting-edge technology implementation and management practices.

The conference concluded with a unified vision for the industry's future. Through collaborative efforts across the supply chain, stakeholders are committed to achieving breakthrough developments, delivering superior egg products to consumers, and fostering sustainable growth throughout the industrial ecosystem.
