Title of a scientific article:
KÖY YUMURTASI VE TİCARİ YUMURTALARIN KALİTE ÖZELLİKLERİ BAKIMINDAN KARŞILAŞTIRILMASI
The terms "village farming" and e.g. "village chicken production" are used. However, I couldn't find examples for "village egg production". What would be the suitable English expression?

After calculation, the village eggs production is subtracted from total egg target. The remaining egg target becomes the production target for the commercial egg production subsystem.

: I googled it and there is only a few resources are available and I could tell that the usage is mostly by non native speakers. I have never heard "village egg" being used.

Then it's going to be very difficult for the researcher to make such a comparison :) Good point though. Thanks for your comment.

cage-free farm egg
O kadar cok link var ki, yukaridaki terimi arama motoruna yazip bakabilirsiniz. BEnce "cage freee" ve "farm eggs"in ikisi de birlikte kullanilmali cunku asagida verdigim linklere bakarsabiz, her koy yumurtasinin "cage free" olmadigi, bazi "caged eggs"in "organic" olabilecegi gibi "factory farm eggs"in de bulundugunu gorecekseniz.
Su durumda, eger yumurtalar, tavuklarin koyde serbest dolasimi ile uretililiyorsa, gece kumese bile konsalar yine de "cage-free farm eggs" demek duruma aciklik getirecektir.
Eger tavuklarin kumeste mi bakilip beslendigini yoksa tarlada gezerek mi beslendigini bilmiyorsak ise sadece "farm eggs" ya da "village aggs" demek de ayrimi ortaya koymak icin yeterli.
Saygilar.

Benim 2000 yilinda bir veteriner icin yaptigim Eng>TR cevirinin orjinal metninde kullanilan terminoloji "cage free egg" ve "factory farm egg" olarak geciyordu. Maalesef bende orjinal kitap yok, yazarini hatirlamiyorum.

Discussion
Before I close this thread, some things I've learned from my own research about the topic: "köy yumurtası" is from chickens that are not grown under systems of intensive agriculture. If they are held in cages or not is not important, so the answer "free-range eggs" is definitely not correct because the criterion is irrelevant; the same is true for "organic egg"; organic eggs can also be produced under conditions of intensive agriculture. Even though the term "village egg" is not colloquial, it is used in scientific contextes (see the links in Selçuk Akyüz' post).
