THE SOCIO-ECONOMIC IMPLICATIONS OF THE VARIOUS SYSTEMS TO KEEP LAYING HENS(incorporating ABCD and PEP) with a capacity of some 30,000 t. These four groups account for some72% of French production.A1.5.4.1. Processor concentrationThe French processing sector is highly concentrated with just four processors accounting for 72% ofoutput. Taking the average size of the next 4 enterprises to be an average of 8,500 tonnes per yearthe eight-firm concentration ratio would amount to 87%. 77A1.5.4.2. Trade in egg productsTrade in eggs and egg products accounts for a small proportion of French production. For the pastten years France has been a net importer of shell eggs and a net exporter of egg products. Afterregistering a net surplus for five years in aggregate the egg sector had a 5,900 tonnes shell eggequivalent deficit in 2002.Since 1996 shell egg external trade has recorded net deficits due to an increase in imports (+5%since 1996) and smaller growth in exports (+0.9% since 1996). In 2002, there was a record deficit of38,706 t. The trade within the EU is presented in Table A1.34. Exports are mainly to the Germanmarket, while imports come mainly from Spain.Table A1.34: French trade of fresh eggs (fresh egg equivalent)Value (thousand Euro) 1990 1995 2000 2001 2002 9 month evolution 2003Import 35692 24226 46769 41805 50639 23%Export 35653 36576 44269 39201 42383 20%Balance -39.0 12.350 -2.500 -2.604 -8.256Volume (t) Imports 39696 37524 59066 58385 74666 11%Origin (%)EU-15 99.6 98.4 99.0% 99.0% 98.4% 11%Spain 0.4 18.7 24.5% 48.8% 51.0% 39%Netherlands 44.6 22.7 41.8% 16.9% 15.4% -53%Germany 6.5 21.2 20.6% 13.2% 13.7% -49%Belgium/Luxembourg 46.3 25.0 6.7% 9.3% 10.0% 32%ITALY 0.0% 3.5% 1.2% 5.1% 5.1% 2,1%*Exports 31459 37799 37417 36447 35959 17%DestinationEU-15 86.5 83.4 85.4% 85.4% 88.7% 14%Germany 11.9 45.3 33.1% 37.2% 28.6% 42%United Kingdom 19.0% 4.9% 12.7% 19.1% 24.4% =Belgium/Luxembourg 4 20.1 15.0% 19.6% 21.8% 10%Switzerland 11.8 12.6 14.3% 14.3% 11.1% 44%Trade balance -8237 275 -21649 -21938 -38707Source: ITAVI77 Based on estimate that there are between 2-9 processors producing between 5,000-12,000 tonnes of liquid egg equivalent per year174
