T/GDOAA 0043-2025 Quality specification for ultra organic eggs

Scope

This document specifies the terms and definitions of the quality standards for ultra-organic eggs, the environment for egg-laying hens, introduction, feed requirements and management, processing, quality requirements, and inspection quality management systems. This document applies to the quality standards for ultra-organic eggs in organic production. The ultra-organic eggs covered by this document have undergone third-party testing, with the safety indicators of the end products exceeding the requirements of GB 2762, GB 2763, and GB 31650, and a significant increase in the content of functional nutritional indicators. With the upgrading of consumers' demand for food safety and nutritional health, China's poultry industry urgently needs to establish quality benchmarks that exceed conventional standards. The National "14th Five-Year Plan for Green Development of Agriculture in China" and the "Guiding Opinions on the Green and High-Quality Development of Poultry Breeding Industry" explicitly propose to "develop ecological circular agriculture and strengthen the supply of high-quality poultry products". As a core source of dietary protein for residents, the quality standards of eggs are directly related to national nutrition and public health. Guangdong, as a major province for poultry and egg production and consumption, also ranks among the top in terms of egg output value nationwide. However, current egg industry still faces widespread problems such as antibiotic residues, excessive heavy metals, and low nutritional value, which constrain the cultivation of high-end markets and the sustainable development of the industry. At the same time, Guangdong has been deeply promoting the construction of characteristic agricultural industry clusters with "one town, one industry", and strongly supporting the development of superior agricultural counties with the development model of "characteristics industry + standard system + brand creation + integrated supply chain",
