FTNN News Network, June 24, 2024, 6:46 AM - People's Party legislator Huang Kuo-Chang held a press conference on June 24 regarding the import of Japanese eggs by Superps, questioning the Ministry of Agriculture's inconsistent statements and a discrepancy of about 500 to 600 million eggs. The Ministry clarified that Huang's calculation error arose from comparing Japanese and Taiwanese crate specifications. The Ministry of Agriculture emphasized that the total weight and number of eggs provided in the data to legislators were consistent, with the discrepancy due to different crate specifications used. The Ministry also stated that it does not support private companies such as Superps being established for specialized egg imports, and investigations have been initiated to clarify the commercial relationship between Superps and Bright Harvest. The Ministry debunked allegations of secrecy in procurement data and highlighted their subsidies to stabilize egg prices in the domestic market.
