PRODUCING EGGS ON THE TOP OF THE WORLD LOHMANN’S SUCCESS IN NEPAL
Nepal Egg Producers Association (NEPA)

In Nepal, commercial farming is an activity in 64 out of 75 districts, with an estimated total of 21,956 commercial farms, of which 1,337 (6.09%) are medium to large layer farms. According to NEPA, Nepal has started producing eggs in line with the domestic demand and with the targets previously set by the government in 2014 as part of their objective to make the country self-sufficient in egg production.

Increase in annual egg production

According to NEPA, annual egg production has increased substantially up to 40% over the last three years thanks to concerted efforts of the government and the country’s egg producers. NEPA also states that egg production is growing continually and is at present sufficient to cater to the domestic demand for eggs.
“With the government prioritising the poultry business, farmers have been attracted towards commercial poultry farming recently, which has contributed to increased production of both chickens and eggs.”

Egg production has been increasing in the country for the last three years. According to NEPA statistics, 859 million eggs (only commercial poultry eggs) were produced in the 2014-15 financial year. This figure increased to 866 million in the 2015-16 financial year with a further increase recorded to 1.3 billion eggs in 2016-17. Commercially run poultry farms have an annual turnover of NRs 33.72 billion, which is equivalent to 1.5% of the country’s economy according to a survey commissioned by the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS).


LOHMANN TIERZUCHT and the booming poultry sector

The poultry sector in general, and the layer segment in particular, is booming in Nepal and has been consequently leading the country towards self-reliance in chicken and egg production. Current chicken meat consumption in the country stands at 4.1 kg per capita. Likewise, 44 eggs are consumed per person per year.

LOHMANN TIERZUCHT GmbH is well represented in Nepal, with a market share of about 50%. Through the continuous efforts of LOHMANN and its customers, LOHMANN BROWN layers enjoy great popularity amongst farmers. With the present status and future inputs, 15 to 20% growth is expected this year, which will continuously grow according to the market trend. We as LOHMANN and our esteemed customers are committed to grow and remain number one.
