Why Manipur Has Import Dependency for Eggs?
Manipur, known as the "Jewel of India," imports approximately 60% of its egg requirement from Assam (mainly Guwahati) and West Bengal (Siliguri). The state's challenging hilly terrain, limited agricultural land in the valley regions, and infrastructure constraints make large-scale commercial poultry farming difficult. Manipur has a predominantly non-vegetarian population with high per capita egg consumption, particularly in urban areas like Imphal. The Imphal Valley serves as the main consumption hub, while Jiribam acts as the crucial gateway for supplies from Assam via NH-2. Frequent bandhs and road blockades on NH-37 (via Nagaland) and NH-2 (via Silchar) significantly impact egg availability and prices. The upcoming Jiribam-Imphal railway project is expected to improve supply chain reliability and reduce transportation costs in the future.
