Egg prices in Odisha almost doubled, going from ₹5 to ₹9 each. Chicken prices also hit ₹300 per kilogram. These price spikes happen because feed costs are up and extreme heat hurts poultry farms. Government nutrition schemes like ICDS face challenges. The current budget allows only ₹7.82 per person. This makes it hard to supply eggs to Anganwadi centers regularly.

Odisha produces over 1 crore eggs daily, but demand stays high. Chief Minister's Krushi Udyogi Yojana offers subsidies to increase production. Even so, private farms often prefer to export eggs for more profit. Kids currently miss out on regular protein, often getting only rice and dalma.

Government needs to fill this funding gap to support at-risk families. This helps make sure children get the nutrition they need, much like the support from other government nutrition schemes found at government nutrition schemes.
