However, the introduction of chicken eggs to this potential market is still problematic at the end: many farming areas have not been recognized as Disease-free Zone (DFZ).


​Obstacle from DFZ’s provisions

According to Thanh Duc Trading - Service - Production Co., Ltd. (Thanh Duc Company, Xuan Phu Commune, Xuan Loc District), with the goal of exporting chicken eggs, enterprises have invested in the construction of breeding farms The eggs are cleaned in a fully self-contained process.

According to Mr. Duc, the enterprise is implementing the second stage, expanding the production scale, building 6 more barns and 2 cages, raising the total number of 600,000 hens, more than 3 times compared to the present.
 
Although meeting the standards, however, clean chicken products of Thanh Duc Company have not been able to export due to the obstacles from DFZ’s provisions.
 
Especially, with the aim to export clean chicken eggs, Thanh Duc Company will apply the technology of breeding in Japan. “Even water for chicken to drink, we also have to use pure water for human consumption to improve the quality of products”, said Mr. Duc.
 
At present, Thanh Duc Company has over 40 distribution points of clean chicken eggs in the province and neighboring provinces such as Ninh Thuan, Binh Thuan, Ba Ria-Vung Tau, Binh Duong, Ho Chi Minh.

According to Mr. Duc, Korean enterprises have visited the company. Every step from quality, output and price are mutually agreed. However, up to now, enterprises have not been exported due to the last stage of construction of ATDB. “After agreeing to all conditions, they rechecked and found the farm is not in the ATDB area, so the contract is not signed,” Mr.Duc said.
 
Prerequisites for export of livestock products
 
Terrestrial animal DFZ area is a district or districts; a province or provinces is defined not to have an DFZ registered case for a specified period of time for each disease, animal species or veterinary activity in that area ensuring control of the disease.
