APPENDIX 1: MEMBER STATE REPORTSPolish foreign trade in shell eggs accounts for a relatively small share of overall production(approximately 3% in 2003) but in recent years, Polish producers have responded to shortages onthe EU market with a sharp increase in exports. In 2003, shell egg exports peaked at 26,700 tonnes(39,0 million pieces), of which 90% were sold to the EU (mainly Netherlands, France, Italy, Belgium,Germany). The trend in the structure of exports shows high volatility, due mainly to the changingmarket situations in trading partner countries, rather than any changes in the domestic market.Nevertheless, shell eggs have dominated Polish egg sector exports for at least last decade and theincreased levels of exports over that period has contributed to some price increases in the domesticmarket.100%80%60%40%20%0%1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003Shell Eggs CN 040700 Whole eggs, dried CN 040891 Whole eggs, liquid CN 040899 Egg yolks, dried CN 040811Egg yolks, liquid CN 040819 Egg albumin dried CN 35021190 Egg albumin dried CN 35021990Figure A1.63: Structure of Polish egg and egg product exports 1995-2003Source: Polish Trade Statistics.The role of imports in the egg market is marginal.
