Why Mizoram Has Highest Egg Prices in Northeast?

Mizoram, known as the "Land of the Blue Mountains," imports approximately 80% of its egg requirement from Assam (Silchar) and Tripura (Agartala). The state has the most challenging terrain in Northeast India with winding mountain roads that increase transportation costs by 30-40%. Mizoram has a Christian-majority population with highest per capita chicken consumption in India, but paradoxically relies heavily on imported eggs. The National Highway 306 (184 km from Silchar to Aizawl) takes 6-8 hours due to 300+ hairpin bends and steep gradients. Monsoon season (June-September) causes catastrophic road disruptions with landslides blocking NH306 for days or weeks. Limited local production, high air freight costs, and border trade challenges with Myanmar make Mizoram's egg prices the highest in Northeast India.

Key Statistics

  • Daily Egg Consumption 6-8 Lakh

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are egg prices in Mizoram highest among Northeast states?

Mizoram imports 80% of its egg requirement from Assam and Tripura. Extreme hilly terrain with winding roads increases transportation costs by 30-40%, limited local production due to Christian dietary preferences for chicken over eggs, high logistics costs due to remoteness, and seasonal road disruptions during monsoon contribute to highest prices in Northeast. Mizoram has highest per capita chicken consumption but relies heavily on imported eggs.
Primary supply route: Silchar (Assam) via NH306 (formerly NH54) through Kolasib to Aizawl (184 km, 6-8 hours). Secondary routes: 1) Agartala (Tripura) via NH8 to Lunglei, 2) Bairabi (Assam border) to Kolasib, 3) Very limited local production in Aizawl and surrounding areas. The winding mountain roads make transportation slow and expensive.
Kolasib district typically has the lowest egg prices due to its location on Assam border and serving as the main entry point. Aizawl has competitive wholesale prices due to volume. Remote southern districts like Lawngtlai and Saiha have highest prices (₹2-3 more) due to extreme remoteness and challenging road connectivity.
During monsoon (June-September), egg prices in Mizoram increase by 25-40% due to: 1) Frequent landslides blocking NH306, 2) Complete road closures for days, 3) Air transport being prohibitively expensive, 4) Higher spoilage rates in humid conditions, 5) Supply chain disruptions lasting weeks. Mizoram experiences some of the worst monsoon disruptions in India.
Major wholesale markets: 1) Bara Bazaar, Aizawl - largest wholesale hub, 2) Lunglei Market - Southern Mizoram distribution, 3) Kolasib Market - Assam border trade point, 4) Champhai Market - Myanmar border trade, 5) Serchhip Market - Central distribution. These markets are heavily dependent on supplies from Silchar, Assam.
Mizoram offers various schemes: MPDS provides 60% subsidy for backyard poultry, NEDP offers special commercial farm incentives, MRLM supports women SHG poultry units, and BADP provides 90% subsidy for border farmers. The Christian-majority state is trying to boost local production to reduce import costs.
