Why Jharkhand Has a Growing Egg Market?

Jharkhand, the mineral-rich state of eastern India, presents an emerging egg market with unique characteristics shaped by its industrial cities and tribal demographics. The state imports 55-60% of its egg requirement from West Bengal, Bihar, and Odisha through NH-33 and NH-2 highway networks. Industrial hubs like Jamshedpur (Tata Steel), Bokaro (Steel Authority), and Dhanbad (Coal India) create substantial institutional demand from factory canteens and worker colonies. The tribal population (26% of state) benefits from government nutrition programs that ensure steady demand for eggs in schools and Anganwadi centers. Local poultry farming is growing through tribal-focused subsidy schemes, with 2,500+ registered farms contributing to 40-45% of state requirements.
