Explained

Where do Swiss organic eggs actually come from?

And what about the egg gadgets? We'll find out!

A handful of players have divided up the world's chicken farming among themselves. Swiss barns are also home to top athletes. What does this mean for organic egg buyers? A question made for Easter.

No Easter without an egg tart. If you care about animal welfare, you will naturally buy organic eggs in the supermarket. But where do they actually come from?

Transparency

This video report first appeared in September 2020. We are showing it again at Easter.

Of course, the sparrows have been whistling it from the rooftops for a long time: The chickens standing in Swiss farmers' barns these days are highly bred powerhouses whose global distribution has been divided up among a handful of breeders.

But does this also apply to those farmers who produce with care? And if so, which came first: the organic egg or the hybrid chicken? blue News asked.
