Many factors lead to tight supply and egg prices are not short in off-season

Recently, the price of eggs has increased significantly

According to the usual seasonal law, after the National Day, egg consumption enters the off-season, and the price will also enter a downward cycle lasting about two months.

"In general, tight egg supply has led to a significant increase in egg prices recently

Zhu Ning told reporters that there are three main reasons for the recent tight egg supply: First, due to the rapid cooling of the weather, the laying rate of laying hens has dropped slightly, which has affected the effective supply of eggs

"In the early part of last week, the price of eggs in the Beijing market rose sharply, but the price was relatively stable in the latter part of last week

On October 29, the average wholesale price of eggs at the Beijing Xinfadi Agricultural Products Wholesale Market was 11.

Most of the merchants in the Egg Trading Hall of Beijing Xinfadi Agricultural Products Wholesale Market purchase eggs directly from chicken farms all year round, and some commission third parties to supply them

Liu Tong said that at present, some chicken farms in the northern production area have not only begun to produce the newly added laying hens, but also the eggs produced have changed from small to medium, and some have even changed from medium to large.

However, Zhu Ning believes that egg prices will continue to run at a high level in the last two months of this year
