# Tomorrow, the Senate opens discussion on securing Egyptians’ animal-protein needs

> Egypt’s Senate is scheduled to discuss a request asking the government to explain its plans for securing supplies of livestock, poultry, and fish products and developing domestic production. The request highlights reliance on imported corn and soybeans for feed, as well as higher energy, transport, and veterinary costs that are pressuring producers.

## Why it matters

The discussion points to Egypt’s exposure to global corn and soybean price swings through imported feed inputs, which can raise livestock and poultry production costs. Any policy response to support producers or expand local supply could affect import demand, but no measures have yet been announced.
