"If we’re saying it’s (eggs) such a good protein; if we’re saying we’re now looking how we can feed ourselves; then we have to reduce that cost so that working people can be able to afford (eggs)," stressed Green. He was speaking during the Jamaica Egg Farmers’ Association's annual general meeting at Hibiscus Lodge in Ocho Rios, St Ann last week.
